NAPALM DEATH Debuts "Standardization" Music Video

UK grindcore pioneers Napalm Death have released a video for "Standardization", the opening track of their special 2CD, 2LP and Digital Download compilation Coded Smears And More Uncommon Slurs, recently released via Century Media Records. The clip was created by Costin Chioreanu / Twilight 13 Media.

Vocalist Mark “Barney“ Greenway checked in with the following comment about the video: "Videos I find one of the trickiest mediums to make vibrant and impactful. Costin, the producer though, had a lot of stuff from our Roadburn Festival presentation which seemed to fit the music quite nicely and reflect the song's subject matter about the utter despair of a colourless life and desire of more conservative forces for a homogenous world according to gender, sexuality, human habits and, well, generally everything. No thanks!"

Coded Smears And More Uncommon Slurs includes a total of 31 songs in a playing time of over 90 minutes, compiling rarities and exclusive earworms spanning 2004-2016 from the whirling gene pool of noise that is Napalm Death.
