Recently reported (here) on the resurfacing of former Forbidden/Testament guitarist Glen Alvelais in a new band, Earth Crawler, the band released their début album, ‘From Below‘, on May 5th, and today is sharing a lyric video for “Black Veils”, a track from that record.
An online PR description of Earth Crawler states: “San Francisco Bay Area heavy metal band made up of dudes from some other heavy metal bands you may or may not have heard of…combining elements from any and all sub-genres and just simply playing music we have a blast creating and performing. No pigeonholing/ narrow-minded/ trend-hopping/ hipster/ elitist bullshit… just HEAVY metal.”
That claim is verified by the clip below, a scathing track of furious thrash and modern metal elements.
