TOMAHAWK Releases Music Video For 'Predators And Scavengers'

March 26, 2021

TOMAHAWK, the band featuring Duane Denison (THE JESUS LIZARD, UNSEMBLE),Trevor Dunn (MR. BUNGLE, FANTÔMAS),Mike Patton (FAITH NO MORE, MR. BUNGLE) and John Stanier (HELMET, BATTLES),has just released its first full-length album in eight years, "Tonic Immobility", via Ipecac Recordings. The official music video for the disc's latest single, "Predators And Scavengers", can be seen below. The clip was directed, animated and produced by Diego Cumplido.

Denison states: "'Predators And Scavengers' started out as a general observation on the current ecological climate of our planet. Perhaps it could also be applied to the socioeconomic climate as well?"

"Tonic Immobility" is available in the following formats: digital, CD digipak, and 180-gram LP in textured gatefold packaging. Vinyl variants include standard black, coke bottle clear (indie retail exclusive — 5,000 available),opaque metallic silver (Ipecac webstore exclusive — 2000 available),and crystal clear (Newbury Comics exclusive — 1,000 available).

"'Tonic Immobility' could just be something in the air we're feeling," said Denison. "It's been a rough year between the pandemic and everything else. A lot of people feel somewhat powerless and stuck as they're not able to make a move without second guessing themselves or worrying about the outcomes. For as much as the record possibly reflects that, it's also an escape from the realities of the world. We're not wallowing in negativity or getting political. For me, rock has always been an alternate reality to everything else. I feel like this is yet another example."
