Avatar are masters at making creative and theatrical videos that even blend into their live shows. It shows no further than their half real / half animated video for single “Chimp Mosh Pit”. This is the band’s latest single from their album Dance Devil Dance, which is out now. The band, starting tomorrow, will also embark on their spring headline tour with support from Veil Of Maya and Orbit Culture.
“Choosing what songs to make videos out of from Dance Devil Dance was harder than ever, with some very strong candidates,” says Eckerström. “Having battle tested ‘Chimp Mosh Pit’ on stage over and over makes me feel we made a very good choice. It’s a fun ride. I like how it leans into the good rock ‘n’ roll times we like to mix with the destructive energy of the metal stuff. It feels like we are the only band who could’ve made this video.”
