Texas'
POWER TRIP has released their official video for "Executioner's Tax (Swing
Of The Axe)" through an exclusive premiere at Noisey. The band continues
to tour the planet in support of their Nightmare Logic LP, as they are
currently torching the West Coast of North America and will head to Europe in the coming weeks.
POWER TRIP's new video for their hit single
"Executioner's Tax (Swing Of The Axe)" takes us front and center,
into the eye of what is guaranteed to be a perfect storm time and time again.
The footage, captured at a spirited hometown show in Dallas melts with clips of political
propaganda which encompass vocalist Riley Gale's lyrics that hone in on the
devaluation of human life by those who've gained power through money and
politics. The video was directed by Andy Capper (Vice, Noisey) with director of
photography Joel Pront, and editor Andrew Betsch.

After a wild, sold out East Coast/Midwest tour, POWER TRIP
is currently taking over West Coast this month with Destruction Unit.
Highlights include Los Angeles, Portland,
Denver, Vancouver,
and more just before they head to Europe with
Napalm Death and Brujeria. Check below for a full list of dates.
POWER TRIP hit hard last month with their most powerful
effort yet; Nightmare Logic. Released to high critical acclaim and
anticipation, their sophomore release does not disappoint. With hooks and
tightness rivaling greats like Metallica, Pantera, or Pentagram, POWER TRIP
punishes fans not only sonically but with pure songwriting skill. Nightmare
Logic proves to be one of the year's smartest and most crucial releases to
spawn from the metal and punk scenes.
"You don't need to be a metalhead to have a blast with
Nightmare Logic... POWER TRIP's fist-pumping choruses, ricocheting grooves, and
ample charm are so animated that they leave us with something addictive and,
well, fun." - Pitchfork / Best New Music
"...possesses a certain monolithic quality Lemmy would
admire: a massive rawness and a sludgy, heavy hopelessness that thrashes with
punk immediacy and metal intricacy...it's a track preparing for war." -
NPR
"...one of the most highly anticipated records in
aggressive music in recent memory..." - The New Yorker
