Canadian Death Metallers CRYPTOPSY have been revealing the vision of their ninth full length “An Insatiable Violence” through various video clips. Vocalist Matt McGachy issued the following comments about that recently: “When we were thinking of a unique way to promote “An Insatiable Violence”, Flo came up with a killer concept of sharing one part from each song before the album came out. We ended up expanding on that idea by using those pieces to create a short film. The concept of the film is about a person that desperately wants to be a popular social media influencer. The scenes dance through the protagonist’s day-to-day relationship with content creation and how their audience reacts to it. It’s an insatiable violence and a truly saddening reality of humanity’s relationship with social media.” You can watch the short film at this location now.
