Kirjoittanut Minttu Koskinen - 13.2.2021

Yhdysvaltalainen metalliyhtye  julkaisi uuden ”Yorktown”-kappaleensa, joka on mukana bändin tulevalla albumilla. Levyn julkaisupäivää ei ole paljastettu, mutta bändi lupaa sen ilmestyvän tämän vuoden aikana.

Tuoreella singlellä vierailee Five Finger Death Punchin kitaristi Andy James. Butcher Babiesin toinen laulaja Carla Harvey kertoi kappaleesta, jonka musiikkivideo ilmestyy helmikuun 15. päivä:

“What the hell is Yorktown you ask? Well it’s our very own little Gotham, a world we’ve created wherein two vamps patrol the city at night while stalking each other like prey! The magic happens when our two anti-heroines form an alliance to defeat the seedy Yorktown underbelly. It’s one of my favorite Butcher Babies songs that we’ve written as of late; a true nod to our love for building characters and storytelling over heavy riffs. We scream, we sing…we save Yorktown from impending doom.”

Bändin Heidi Shepherd puolestaan kommentoi:

“When writing the song ‘Yorktown‘, it was fairly obvious as to what the video was going to look like. A superhero with 9 lives! But, this is Butcher Babies and what is better than one super hero? TWO SUPER HEROES! Offering a nod to female empowerment, when strong females unite, we can take over the world. Our two characters form a bond and promise to defend the residents of Yorktown together.

From concept to edit, we had a hand in all aspects of our very own ‘Gotham’. This video was filmed in Orem, UT at my parent’s film studio, Shepherd Grip & Lighting, where the entire family joined forces to bring this idea to life. You can definitely say that this was a family affair. Both of my parents and all of my 5 siblings created the set design, lighting design, ran all the equipment, and took on many roles in front of and behind the camera.

We were lucky to snag my brother-in-law, famed VFX artist, Aaron Sorensen as our director. From the all of stunts to the performances, we are so excited to show the world the silly, comic side of Butcher Babies. After all, we all have a little super hero in us waiting to break free!”
