TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION Drift Into The Apocalypse With "…to be alive at the end of the world"

From drummer/vocalist Richard Hoak: “Sit down and shut up. Total Fucking Destruction has issued mandatory guidelines regarding mental relaxation and the ingestion of world government approved video propaganda related to being alive at the end of the world. Good luck and stay safe!”

Following up the amazing #USA4TFD, Total Fucking Destruction is gearing up to release …to be alive at the end of the world. And here we have a music video to accompany that release.

When describing grindcore one does not usually casually throw in the word “meditative.” What with the genre’s motto being “noise not music” and most bands playing at 600 bpm blasts for six seconds over 700 tracks.  But this is Total Fucking Destruction and they do not play well with barriers. Though grind at their core, they’ve no problem getting downright weird and psychedelic.

From guitarist Pingdum : "We conceived the video version of "…to be alive at the end of the world" as an active mindful meditation of the slow-motion apocalypse. As the distant horizon approaches, as the earth fills the sky, as the words, sounds and visuals envelop consciousness, all thoughts will disintegrate. In the new normal, only total fucking destruction will remain."

The song and video are slow burners. So get settled, grab some headphones and take it in.
