FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH Punk Label In New "Jekyll and Hyde” Video

Five Finger Death Punch will release their sixth full-length album Got Your Six through Prospect Park in North America on August 28th and Eleven Seven Music outside North America. Today is the global premiere of the band's new video "Jekyll and Hyde”

Record label Prospect Park got five finger death punked when they asked the band for a new music video. Says guitarist Zoltan Bathory: “Punking the label and trolling the trolls is actually very satisfying … so either we make a video that makes a difference like “Wrong Side Of Heaven” did or we just fuck it all up and have fun with it... just clown the whole thing as we did with “Under And Over It”… and now with this one. We didn’t even hire a director … we didn’t want this to accidentally make sense…” 

Responds Jeremy Summers, President of Prospect Park Records: “First we were scratching our collective heads but we never once interfered with their vision… so ultimately – if that’s what the band wants to put out we are not going to stop them. We were shocked, then cried, then laughed because it’s actually funny."

The Got Your Six pre-order, as well as several exclusive album pre-order merchandise packages are live and ready for order now at this location. Upon purchasing any Got Your Six pre-order offer, buyers will be able to instantly download the new single, “Jekyll and Hyde”.

Got Your Six is available in various formats to accommodate fans digitally, as well as those who prefer a physical item cd or vinyl alike:

- Standard album, digital (11 tracks)
- Deluxe album, digital (11 tracks + 3 bonus tracks)
- Standard physical CD (11 tracks)
- Deluxe physical CD (11 tracks + 3 bonus tracks + redeemable code for an exclusive t-shirt)
- Vinyl (11 tracks + 3 bonus tracks + digital download card for the deluxe version of the album)

Forthcoming, there will also be an exclusive Best Buy edition of the album available (deluxe album & and an exclusive, limited edition 5FDP merchandise item).

“If someone asked me to sum up who and what Five Finger Death Punch is, I would tell them everything they need to know is on this new record. Hands down, Got Your Six is our best one yet…  As for the first single, everybody is Jekyll and Hyde. There are multiple personalities to every human being, and no matter how civilized and sophisticated you think you are, if you dare to look at yourself very, very closely, you’ll see…  somewhere deep down… there is a demon inside. Your circumstances may not have provoked it yet but trust me, it’s there…” says Ivan Moody vocalist of Five Finger Death Punch about the lyrical theme of the song.

“The verses are actual unaltered voicemails from Ivan. We have an ever-growing collection of these 4:00am messages Ivan usually bombards us with, and Jason had this idea to copy them to a hard drive, then literally wrote the song around them… what you hear is the actual voicemail” reveals Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory about the unusual process of making “Jekyll And Hyde”.
