I Set My Friends On Fire Release New Video For "It Comes Naturally"
Celebrated experimental rockers I Set My Friends On Fire have unleashed a captivating new video for the track "It Comes Naturally" from their latest album Astral Rejection released June 21st on Epitaph Records. The band, which consists of vocalist Matt Mehana, drummer/keyboardist, Chris Lent and longtime collaborator, Travis Richter-- have crafted a metallic masterpiece with Astral Rejection, achieving a degree of sonic experimentation without ever losing the unique sound their growing number of fans have come to appreciate.
The Winnipeg Sun called the group "masters of mayhem" and described Astral Rejection as a "multi-headed monstrosity of monumental proportion. With metal shredding, post hardcore thrashing, synth-pop crooning and electronic knobtwiddling all slamming up against each other in a sonic cage match."
The record's second single "It Comes Naturally" is a cathartic slab of syncopated progressive metal interlaced with ultra modern pop choruses. The comedic science fiction-esque video for the song was shot on the streets of Los Angeles in partnership with friend, band co-founder and ex-member Nabil Moo.
"Matt and Chris approached me with a concept for a music video and asked me if I would be interested in shooting it," Moo explains. "We wanted to pay homage to many of our favorite eighties movies, most notably 'Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure,' while also keeping in line with the band's unique sense of humor. I'm very happy with how it turned out. I hope that fans of ISMFOF will enjoy the quirky and unusual nature of the video, as well as the band's trip through the wormhole."
