"Swing The Noose", the new video from Alaskan metallers 36 CRAZYFISTS, can be seen below. The song is taken from the band's new album, "Time And Trauma", which was released on February 17 via Spinefarm.
Asked by Kerrang! magazine when the process of writing the record started for him, 36 CRAZYFISTS singer Brock Lindow said: "The music was being written during the time my mom was [battling cancer], but I didn't put down any vocals until she had passed. She started the chemo in January [2011] and she passed in November, so it was a quick year, you know? So… it was therapy, for sure. The record provided all the storytelling for that year."
He continued: "One of the very first lyrics I wrote for the record was 'I've seen the devil in many of my days, lately I've decorated far too many graves.' That lyric kind of jump-started the whole concept of death and the fragility of life. It wasn't necessarily just my mom; my grandmother passed two weeks before her, and then Mick [Whitney, 36 CRAZYFISTS' bassist] lost his mom as well. And it's not just them. Throughout the entire growth of the band, we've had a few buds pass away. There is an alarming rate of young people that have passed away in Alaska. Our original bass player was killed in 1996, so at an early age we were dealing with grief. Not that you get any better at it, but you get more accepting. I found peace and closure in the sense that I got a full year with my mom which I hadn't had in years, because I was touring. Once that whole thing happened, I was really at peace. I really got closure through writing all about it."
Regarding how the band settled on the "Time And Trauma" album title, Brock said: "It wasn't the original title. The original title was 'Lightless', which is another song. I thought 'Lightless' was good, but no one else was feeling it. I could tell. Then one day, Holt [Steven, guitarist] said, 'I think 'Time And Trauma' is a better title.' It just kind of fits because not only was it a dark time, but there's peace, there's closure, there's rebirth. 'Lightless' leaves it as bleak. 'Time And Trauma': do we have enough time to outlive the trauma? I think we do. I think time heals. Time heals in some capacity. Time and trauma both go hand in hand on this record, but there's definitely some light at the end."
