HAVOK: Metal Injection Hosts Exclusive Video Premiere

Today popular video portal, Metal Injection, is hosting an exclusive video premiere of "D.O.A.," the latest work of cinematic awesomeness from Denver thrash sensations, HAVOK. The tune comes off the band's critically-lauded Time Is Up full-length, released via Candlelight Records earlier this year. The video was directed by Josh Gold and shot in various locations around Denver.

Commented vocalist/guitarist David Sanchez: "This video is a reflection of the lyrics to 'D.O.A.,' a song about drunk driving and smashing your face through the fucking windshield! It's a pretty brutal video for a brutal song."

Check out "D.O.A." HERE.

HAVOK recently completed a near month-long tour with Exhumed and Goatwhore, which proved to be a great success despite some van troubles. Said Sanchez of the trek: "The tour with was a blast! We had lots of great shows and met some rad people. It was great to finally hit the American Southeast. Up until this trip, we had never made it there before. Due to vehicle issues, we had to miss the last couple of shows. Our transmission blew up in the middle of nowhere in Texas and we're stuck here, as I write this. We plan on rescheduling those shows to make up for the ones we missed. In times like these, I can't help but remember a sacred adage that an old wise man once told me: 'Shit happens!'"

The band will return to the road this February for a short run of dates alongside English Dogs, The Casualties and Toxic Holocaust! The tour will commence on February 10 in Baltimore at the Ottobar and ravage its way towards the West Coast, coming to a close February 25 in Santa Ana at the Galaxy Theatre.
