Six Feet Under have premiered a new video for their song “Mister Blood And Guts.” This track is from the band’s latest album “Next To Die.” Guitarist Jack Owen said the following about the single:
“When I was young, local TV stations always had a show where a creepy host would show campy cult movies and dress up and tell you tidbits about the film. This continues today with a show hosted by the creepiest of hosts, Svengoolie. ‘Mister Blood And Guts’ is about a film you might see on one of these shows, albeit with a much more violent plot. Our villain is a black clad caped phantom with a top hat who attacks unsuspecting moviegoers, leaving the aisles filled with blood and the seats filled with heads! This is another song that I wrote the music after having the lyrics in my head for a few days.”

“As both father and mother to our precious dinosaur Gor Gor, my hearts break to see what he has become: a crack-addicted truck-stop lizard-of-the-evening.

Come watch as GWAR lays a whoopin’ on his giant red ass on the ‘Gor Gor Must Die Tour‘ with Midnight, Mac Sabbath, X-Cops, and Atomic Rule.”

Guitarist Nick Hamm commented:
“A lot of bands try to do anything they can to be the hottest thing of the moment and we’ve just never operated like that. We don’t think in moments, or months, or record cycles. Some bands end up getting sick of whatever walls they exist in, but I see Citizen as this long term creative project where there’s always somewhere new to go, and that’s kept me exhilarated through all these years. And we’ve trusted that people who like our band will want to come along. A lot of people grew with us and we’re really thankful for that.”

Frontman Joey Tempest said the following about working with producer Tom Dalgety:
“It was a true pleasure working with Tom. He’s creative, musical and incredibly intuitive — he really became a sixth member of the band during the writing and recording of this album. We even invited him to co-write on some of the songs.”
A video for the first single, “One On One,” can be found below. That clip features actor Peter Stormare (“Fargo”, “The Big Lebowski”). Tempest commented:
“The power and feel is fresh, but some of the melodies bring me back to where it all began. Lyrically, it’s perhaps not filled with as much escapism as early Europe. These lyrics automatically ended up being more of a reflection of the times we live in today. Ever since ‘One On One’ was just a demo, we’ve stayed with it… never gave up on it, and elevated it to a place where it belongs: a high-flying, classic hard rock track.
We always knew Peter loved rock music, and when his name came up it just felt right. We wanted to approach this from a different angle — something more stripped back and unexpected.”
