No Clean Singing is hosting the exclusive premiere of Sacramento, California thrash veterans PSYCHOSOMATIC’s official video for “Personality Agenda.” The song hails from the band’s seventh LP, The Invisible Prison, which saw release through Nefarious Industries in August.
Unloading twelve tracks of classic California thrash metal, including a cover of Vio-lence’s “Serial Killer,” PSYCHOSOMATIC’s The Invisible Prison was produced, engineered, and mixed by David Sanchez (Havok) at Riffs Or Die Recordings, and mastered by Mark Lewis (Chimaira, Trivium, The Black Dahlia Murder) at MRL Studios. The record is completed with art by the band’s founding bassist/vocalist Jeff Salgado, coloring by Vincent Pizarro, layout by Greg Meisenberg, and photography by Michael Alvarez.
The new video was filmed and edited by Jesse Davis at DVC Studios. Offers Salgado, “‘Personality Agenda’ was written about online falsehoods and personas. A depth into the digital age of opinions without consequences. The raw aggression of style displayed on this video is to give our listeners a view of our stage performance.”
Writes No Clean Singing, “The fury comes through loud and clear in the searing words, which condemn the subjugation of reason and individuality beneath on-line tidal waves of falsehood and counterfeit ideology, all of which stop progress dead in its tracks. The gang shouts ring true: ‘They won we lost!’ The music is super-heated too, powered by thundering and neck-snapping drumwork, gut-punching bass-lines, darting and skittering arpeggios, and blaring chords. The fierce, blood-pumping energy of the music is highly contagious, and so is the brazen intensity of Salgado‘s screaming yells. And as icing on the cake, you’ll encounter a gloriously glittering and fluidly supple solo that’s a mesmerizing piece of fireworks all its own.”
