The ANTRVM was created to move the national extreme metal scene with a simple but bold proposal. Following its successful debut, with praise from the public and specialized media, the band returns with its second half, titled “A Pound of Flesh”.
The new single marks a fusion of influences, combining elements of death metal with modern thrash metal, resulting in a sound that brings more groove and weight to the EP ‘Defiler’, which is scheduled to be released at the end of November.
The music video was directed by comedian Rodrigo Fernandes, better known as Jacaré Banguela, with photography and movement direction by Leonardo Benaci.
The lyrics of the song are inspired by the work “The Merchant of Venice”, one of the most famous works by William Shakespeare, which addresses themes such as harm, revenge, justice and love.
About the music video, director Jacaré Banguela comments:
“When Cutrale told me that the lyrics were based on ‘El mercader de Venecia’, we began to imagine what the contemporary version of this ‘deal for a pound of flesh’ would be like and we looked at the relationship between manager and employee, as well as models on sexy websites. Son of universes that, even though they may seem distant, are philosophically similar. It was in this context that we conceived the narrative of the music video”.
About the singer, vocalist Victor Cutrale comments:
“One of the real challenges was to tell this story without falling into vulgarity and at the same time emphasizing the similarity between these types of ‘markets’. Both the business world and professional modeling seek to extract something from their ‘clients’. This is the moment in which we can observe who is willing to pay the price”.
