Metalcore forerunners Zao have revealed a visceral new video for “Transitions” from the band’s first full-length release in five years, The Crimson Corridor. Lyrically inspired by American writer Isaac Asimov and directed by Eric Livingston (Dead Cross, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk), “Transitions” grapples with the extreme unknown between life and death.

Drummer Jeff Gretz shares more about the band’s latest visual experience:

“We have been fans of Eric Livingston for a long time and were always looking for a reason to work with him. We sent him the song along with very vague descriptions of ‘Birth, Death, Decay, Nature, Agoraphobic Skies.’ He wrote us back within minutes and said, ‘Got it! Oh, and I think there will be claymation.’ What more could you ask for?”

The Crimson Corridor is Zao’s twelfth studio album and was released last Friday via the band’s own Observed/Observer Recordings.
