‘Doomsday’ Arrives in the New Video From Jungle Rot

Chicago Death Metal bruisers Jungle Rot deliver a video worthy of their moniker.

I don't think Dave Matrise and company care about being anything other than Death Metal as f--k and I'm glad they don't. While I don't mind when bands step out of their comfort zone a little bit, I can damn sure appreciate a group sticking to their guns and making a career out of doing what they do best.

The clip for "Doomsday" alternates between scenes of the band belting out the tune and a prepping conspiracy theorist who is quickly losing his marbles.

Bassist James Genenz expands on the character:

To me, the video is essentially about paranoia. The protagonist is more than likely a paranoid conspiracy theorist, who probably isn't all that wrong with his theories, but is driven mad because of them. The live shots of us playing under targets are like his delusions, envisioning an attack on a small populace of citizens and we are his weapon. Eventually, he cannot handle the prophetic visions and blinds himself to it.”

"Doomsday" comes from Jungle Rot's 8th studio album, Order Shall Prevail, which is out now on Victory Records.
