Fuck the Facts

"Drift" (video)

Canadian grindcore crew Fuck the Facts have a new video out for "Drift," the first track off their newest album Die Miserable.

David Hall directed this menacing clip, and he's worked with a number of other grindcore, death metal and heavy music acts, including Brutal Truth and Hail of Bullets. In a statement, Hall said the video and track attempt to convey "the modern trend of disposable friends" and the feeling that "people you would trust with your life stick you with a dirty AIDS needle for a fucking nickel."

Fast cuts and flickering images sync up with the song's intense breakdowns, coming off as an impression of a horror film where gruesome things are hinted at but never explicitly shown. The overall effect is deeply unnerving and captures the ugly theme of backstabbing and betrayal.
