Baltimore-based Death Metal savants, MISERY INDEX, has released their new record, “Complete Control”, on May 16th, 2022 through Century Media Records. In continued support of the album, the band has unveiled an official video for the track “Rites Of Cruelty”, created by Chris Joao / Iron Elephant Studio.
Bassist/vocalist Jason Netherton checked in with the following comment about the “Rites of Cruelty” clip: “This video is a sincere shout-out to all the MISERY INDEX fans who made the effort to come and rage with us this past summer on the various ‘Complete Control’ tours – from festival stages to dive bars, we’ve hit them all, and this video is a tribute to the good times of summer past as we enter the darker months of autumn. We chose the track ‘Rites of Cruelty’ as we feel it embodies all the pissed-off energy of our new album in one bombastic faceripper, from blast beats to tank-like breakdowns, it’s become a staple of our live set, and hope you all dig it as well.”
