FRENCH MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST IGORRR SHARES VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE ‘HEADBUTT’
French multi-instrumentalist and producer Gautier Serre has been operating under the name Igorrr for 20 years now, yet each new record still resounds with a startling freshness and radical vitality.
Steadfastly unclassifiable fifth album AMEN maintains this impact, blindsiding the listener with a new set of exploratory curveballs and continuing to surprise and unnerve even the most attuned enthusiast.
AMEN arrives September 19 via Metal Blade.
The record features guest appearances from by Scott Ian (Anthrax), Trey Spruance (Mr. Bungle), and Mike Leon (Soulfly).
Today, Igorrr drops the video for "HEADBUTT."
"Is the biggest fortissimo ever made on a piano bigger than heavy and massive metal riffs?," the artist states. "The match between classical music and metal was very close, but the piano won with that final excavator uppercut. Starting with an ostinato that gives the pulse of the track and shows that the piano can also be a rhythmic instrument, we witness smart blows between both parties, going crescendo until the actual headbutt on the piano, which wasn't even the strongest or last move from classical music."
