ALABAMA THUNDERPUSSY Set To Shoot Video; Debut More New Music From Open Fire

ALABAMA THUNDERPUSSY will begin filming the first video from their forthcoming new record Open Fire this past weekend. The video, for the track 'Words Of The Dying Man', will be shot in their hometown of Richmond, VA with local creative collective Day By Day (LAMB OF GOD, MUNICIPAL WASTE). The filming begins today (January 22nd) and will last throughout the weekend in a “houseparty” setting. Alabama Thunderpussy drummer Bryan Cox says of the video shoot: “It’ll be nothing too fancy or cerebral because, well, that's not what we do. The goal for this thing is have something entertaining and fun to watch. If any of you want to join us and participate, be at 800 North 22nd street at noon on Saturday (tomorrow). We'll have a keg.”

In other news, Alabama Thunderpussy have also posted another preview track, 'None Shall Return', from Open Fire here.

Open Fire is set for a March 6th North American release date (March 12th internationally) and will be the first ALABAMA THUNDERPUSSY record to feature new vocalist Kyle Thomas (ex- EXHORDER / FLOODGATE).
