American death metal outfit Job for a Cowboy have unveiled the brand new music video for their track ‘Tarnished Gluttony’, a track taken from their latest album ‘Demonocracy’.
The disturbing nine-and-a-half-minute clip was directed by Michael Panduro (Saint Vitus, Cephalic Carnage), and comes off the band's Demonocracy full-length, issued earlier this year through Metal Blade Records. The album is the band’s third and managed to chart at #87 in the US Billboard 200.
“‘Tarnished Gluttony' originally runs off the idea of blind faith into our government and monetary system,” says Jonny Dave. “The director ran with the idea and spliced it with a H.P. Lovecraftian twist. The video streams the fascination of religion and the actions people justify in the name of religion, and this video is a spin on the old biblical tale of Abraham and Isaac, however, set in the world of Lovecraftian mythology. The point is, acting blindly in faith to a Christian deity is just as absurd as worshiping squid like monsters from space who live under the sea."
Director Panduro jokingly added: “As a commercial director, I'm a complete failure. The band asked for just one thing and I couldn't deliver. Indeed, this video has no boobs.”
