BROKEN HOPE Releases Video For 'Outback Incest Clan'

“Outback Incest Clan”, the new video from death metal veterans BROKEN HOPE, can be seen below. The song is taken from the band’s seventh studio album, “Mutilated And Assimilated”, which was released in June via Century Media Records.

BROKEN HOPE guitarist Jeremy Wagner commented: “What’s in a name? Our song titles usually say a lot, and ‘Outback Incest Clan’ should tell you what’s in store.

“I got the idea for the subject matter straight from our sick vocalist, Damian Leski, who has can given me a few lyrical ideas. This song is based on true events!

“I’ll give you the Wikipedia lowdown: It’s about the ‘Colt family incest case,’ dubbed by media as the ‘Colt incest clan,’ an Australian family discovered in 2012 to have been engaging in four generations of incest beginning with ‘Tim and June Colt,’ a brother and sister who emigrated from New Zealand in the 1970s. The family grew to nearly forty members ranging from grandparents to mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, aunts, uncles, nephews, brothers and sisters all engaging in various forms of incest. Many of the children suffered from deformities and medical problems.

“The video was another collaboration between director Tommy Jones and BROKEN HOPE and we love the way this one played out with Tommy‘s cool camera angles and the creepiness he injected into it.”

“Mutilated And Assimilated” was produced by Scott Creekmore and features artwork by Wes Benscoter

Regarding the follow-up to 2013’s “Omen Of Disease”, Wagner said: “BROKEN HOPE studio album number seven?! Un-fucking-believable! I’m floored at how amazing our new album turned out. The songs are relentless and violent and dark and heavy — and all from a fresh and ferocious place we haven’t shared before. Moreover, thanks to my new studio and the stellar work of engineering/producing Jedi — Scott Creekmore — the production is on a sonic level like we’ve never had in our career.

“For me personally, I feel ‘Mutilated And Assimilated’ is my own finest hour as a guitarist and lyricist since I formed this band as teenager. I’ve never felt this inspired before. The album has my strongest riffage to date, it also has Leski riffage on a few songs, it has my best friends on it, and in a crazy twist, I used Jeff Hanneman‘s guitars to write the album with and used them to track with in honor of his influence on myself and the world of metal.”
