Nanaimo, BC six-piece powerhouse The Body Politic has posted a teaser for their upcoming music video "All Hands", in support of their latest EP 'Egressor', which is available for FREE download here.
Drummer Spencer Bowman comments: "When we began searching for a director for the 'All Hands' music video, it didn’t take us long to come across Emma Higgins. Emma and her team captured the mood of the song and the energy of the band better than we could have hoped for. We had a blast on set, and we’re excited to have the video’s exclusive premiere on MuchMusic (on February 25th)."
The Body Politic's Egressor EP was released in September 2014, as the follow-up to the band's 2011 debut album All Too Human. Taking their name from a Clive Barker short story, and shifting gears from jazz (which most of the members studied at Vancouver Island University) to progressive metal, the band combines poly-metric grooves, aggressive screams and soaring vocal melodies to push the boundaries of modern metal music with technically impressive musicianship. Their emotionally charged songs incorporate an element of playfulness that has lead The Body Politic to stand out in a vast metal crowd, and to perform in opening slots for Tesseract, Protest The Hero and Scale The Summit.
