Crossover party thrashers INSANITY ALERT are now releasing a brand new music video for the song “Shredator!” The single was previously released as a celebration of the Shredator Skateboard line, which the band developed together with Koloss Skateboard. The Shredator Skateboards are now back in stock and available HERE.
Watch the official “Shredator” video at the official Season of Mist Youtube Channel HERE.
INSANITY ALERT comments: “The world is a shitty place right now, full of misery, diseases, fascists, hipsters and longboarders. But there is hope. The savior of justice and reason is about to come. So bow down to the promising super hero of our time. Beware of THE SHREDATOR – coming to you in a brand new music video and new skateboards!”
Bonded by a beer drinkin’ and hellraisin’ pact of thrash and skate, the band pitched the idea of a skater version of the great 80s Schwarzenegger movie “The Predator” to Koloss Skateboards and the rest is history. The Shredator skate deck was designed by artist James Callahan, a.k.a Barf Comics, who also created the album artwork for INSANITY ALERT’s ‘Moshburger.’ The skateboard is available at Black Heaven Shop along with a limited edition white flexi vinyl and other INSANITY ALERT merchandise. You can find it HERE.
INSANITY ALERT has previously released a live video from their set at Hellfest 2019, where the band performed on the main stage in support of Slayer and Lamb of God. “A Skullcrushin’ Good Time” can be seen HERE.
Thrash outfit INSANITY ALERT are the kind of people who know what to bring to a party: a big dose of humour with a dash of darkness, party tunes, and a six pack. It’s these ingredients that make up the basis of the band’s third full length record, ‘666-pack’.
The world of INSANITY ALERT is a dark yet happy place. Fast, aggressive music, crazy lyrics about alcohol, rage, weed, ignorance and hate, all drenched in an 80’s hot sauce but played with a 2019 attitude. The band emerged from the Austrian city of Innsbruck in 2011, with only one intent: deliver crushing, crossover party thrash.
A tongue-in-cheek concept backed up by strong musical prowess worked out extremely well as ‘First Diagnosis’ proved in 2012. This demo was welcomed with open arms and the first impression of the public quickly confirmed by ‘Second Opinion’, which came out the year after. In 2014, debut album, ‘Insanity Alert’ delighted critics and fans alike and was reissued four years later by Season of Mist. The wild Tyrolians, always eager to please, next served a juicy ‘Moshburger’ (2016).
With ‘666-pack’ the band proves once more to be an unstoppable force. Whether it is dropping a to-the-point, crossover track such as “The Body Of The Christ is The Parasite” or INSANITY ALERT-esque interpretations of classics like “Saturday Grind Fever”, the groove will have you headbanging in no time with a smirk on your face. Having confirmed their first festivals for 2019 and riding the wave of the thrash metal revival, INSANITY ALERT can’t wait to return to the stage and share (a) 666-pack with you!
