August 27, 2007, 16 years ago
Estonian ultra-brutal death metallers NEOANDERTALS have posted their video for the track 'Neanderthals Were Master Butchers' on YouTube. Watch it below.
Promotional text accompanying the clip reveals the ideas behind the concept:
"This video takes us into the world beyond the concept described on the Neoandertals album Neanderthals Were Master Butchers. That LP was all about the Neanderthals and the rising of the undead neo-Neanderthal menace. But what happens when the neo-Neanderthals have put an end to mankind? The Neanderthals believed that the spirits of the dead, whose body would not be defleshed, will come back to haunt the living. Therefore the annihilators from the last primate wars will make sure that every single carrion in this post-survival world is freed from its flesh. Old motors and butchering devices are robustly reused by the semi-intelligent neo-Neanderthal zombies to smash the leftovers into a utter mess of marrow and flesh. Every piece of working machinery decorated with the skulls of sapiens. Scenes of skinned carcasses stripped of meat mixed with clips of the band performing."The concert footage was captured on tape on May 18th at a show in Rock Café, Tallinn, Estonia. Performing line-up:
Rain Pohlak - bass, vocals; Roland Seer - drums.
Neanderthals Were Master Butchers was recorded on July 3, 2006 at Matrix Studios in Tallinn, Estonia. The band put the finishing touches on the CD in August 2006, 150 years after the first Neanderthal fossil finds in Neander Valley in August 1856. Mixing and mastering was handled by Neoandertals mainman Rain Pohlak. It was the first and last Neoandertals album for drummer Roland Seer, who has now been replaced by female drummer Sandra Vungi.
Neanderthals Were Master Butchers was made available exclusively in the Estonian market on February 17th through Heli Records. A worldwide version of Neanderthals Were Master Butchers is pressed and is due shortly via Forensick Music.
