OBITUARY Films 'Evil Ways' Video; Photos Available

December 17, 2007

Legendary Florida-based death metallers OBITUARY have issued the following update:

"We had a few busy days over the weekend to get the video for 'Evil Ways' done but, we did it. It was actually a pretty good time and not to painful. Shooting videos is not any of our favorite thing to do but, I think we got some good stuff!

"We shot at a couple of locations and really need to thank Eric and the guys from Etech, Mark Prator (RedRoom Recorders),Dan from Dan's Three Corners Bar and the guys from The Castle down in Ybor City for all their help. The director Hart [comic book stalwart and director Hart D. Fisher] and his crew did a great job and we really appreciate all their hard work."

Director Hart D. Fisher previously stated about the "Evil Ways" clip, "We're shooting in Florida, and I'm going to take this far further than just a bunch of assholes on stage playing their guitars. They want to go dark, go mean, and take this all to the horror movie level. There's going to be cameos from a ton of death metal guys also."

Check out the photos from the shoot at this location.

"Evil Ways" is the lead single from OBITUARY's new album, "Xecutioner's Return", which was released in North America on August 28 via Candlelight Records. The CD was mixed at Redroom Recorders and was mastered in June at Morrisound Studios in Tampa. The band once again worked with artist Andreas Marschall, who has previously created the art for "The End Complete" and the group's last record, "Frozen in Time".

Roadrunner Records has set a January 29, 2008 release date for a "best-of" collection from legendary Florida death metallers OBITUARY. Entitled, appropriately enough, "The Best of Obituary", the CD will feature the following track listing:

01. Internal Bleeding
02. 'Til Death
03. Slowly We Rot
04. Cause Of Death
05. Chopped In Half
06. Turned Inside Out
07. The End Complete
08. I'm In Pain
09. Don't Care
10. Final Thoughts
11. Kill For Me
12. Threatening Skies
13. On The Floor

OBITUARY will team up with long-running German thrashers HOLY MOSES for a European tour in January 2008. Also appearing on the bill are Swedish metallers AVATAR.
