UK-based guitarist / producer Fraser Edwards will release new album, The Architect, on June 5th. The official video for the new single "Warzone" can be viewed below.

Edwards: "After the massive success of our first single, 'Stop Saying We Sound Like DragonForce', we felt the need to follow up with something even crazier. Unfortunately, not being able to meet up with each other has made that difficult but it was a great opportunity to get creative and do something in the genre of a 'quarantine video.' We had a load of fun making this video to the extent that we actually went TOO wacky and had to scale it back a bit! Hopefully people find 'Warzone' to be a load of banter and who knows, maybe it will even put a smile on your face!"
