We Love Metal Article - EHK

 

Thrash purists will tell you there is no such thing as "melodic thrash." Guess what you bozos, the band of the week Every Hour Kills pisses on that argument. These Calgary Alberta warriors bring the headbanging fun with strong melodic vocals and melodies. Making music that appeals to the masses isn't a bad thing contrary to popular belief. Hailing from the hard working oil patch of Canada Every Hour Kills shows a strong work ethic and the necessary ability to get metal back on the minds of the Country Music lovin' fans of the west. The guys need your help with a video contest below and after seeing this mind blowing piece of art you will have no problem taking the few seconds necessary to get EHK's work noticed. I'm always proud to be Canadian but finding bands like Every Hour Kills makes me realize exactly how proud I am. - Martell

August 5, 2015 - Calgary, Alberta, Canada - Modern Melodic Metal band Every Hour Kills has released their "Almost Human" music video from their upcoming self-titled EP which comes out on September 18th. The video, which was directed by Doug Cook is part of an online voting competition where the winning videos receive one of two $30,000 grants to produce a music video + documentary, receive training and mentorship opportunities, and distribution on TELUS Optik TV On Demand and online!

The song is about addictions, vices and demons. Everybody has them in some form. Sometimes when you deal with these trials you feel isolated and alone, like an alien among your own kind. Like you're not quite human. The video concept illustrates this by showing the band in a cold, isolated environment being filmed only by futuristic robotic security cameras. They are forced to perform and give every ounce of energy they have to even have a chance of being set free... - Sacha Laskow
