Watch: Bullet For My Valentine drop music video for ‘Not Dead Yet’

With their North American tour about to wrap, Bullet For My Valentine have returned with a brand new music video. On Monday (Oct. 15), the Welsh band unleashed the music video for their latest single, “Not Dead Yet.” The three-and-a-half-minute clip follows a woman and a man during the course of a few days’ span.

The camera follows the pair as they spend their days hanging out together, but also having some alone time. In between the shots of the couple going about their days, are shots of the band in what looks to be a sound stage. As the group performs the song, they appear to be surrounded by dense white fog that changes colors as the video progresses.

According to the band’s frontman Matt Tuck, the music video was filmed in Japan following their performance at this year’s Summersonic music festival in Tokyo and Osaka.

“We shot our latest video for ‘Not Dead Yet’ in Japan after our Summersonic 2018 performances,” begins Tuck.

“We’ve never done a video there before so we thought ‘Why not?!’ Visually, it’s stunning thanks to the amazing work by Japanese filmmakers Maxilla. We love this track and can’t wait for you all to see the new video.”

“Not Dead Yet” is featured on Bullet For My Valentine’s recently released record, Gravity. Though Gravity was released back in June, the band is already making plans to release a deluxe version of the record later this month.

Going by the same name as the original album, the deluxe version will include all 11 tracks from the June release as well as two new songs, “Breaking Out” and “Crawling.” In addition to that, the deluxe reissue will include a cover of Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive,” a remixed version of “Letting You Go,” and piano versions of “Breathe Underwater,” “The Very Last Time,” and “Under Again.”

The digital deluxe version of Gravity is due out Oct. 26 through Search & Destroy/Spinefarm Records. Pre-orders are currently available here.

Bullet For My Valentine to take ‘Gravity’ on the road this fall

Bullet For My Valentine’s 2018 was already filled with nonstop touring engagements, but don’t expect the band to slow down any time soon. On Friday (April 27), the Welsh group announced a brand new tour which will find them performing across the United States during the fall months. Titled the Gravity tour – after their upcoming sixth studio album – the tour will find the rock band visiting venues across the country during the months of September and October.

The tour will officially kick off on Sept. 13 at Harrah’s Voodoo Lounge in Kansas City, Missouri and conclude a little over a month later on Oct. 16 at the House of Blues in Las Vegas. Though Bullet For My Valentine have yet to confirm who will be opening for them during the trek, they do assure fans that that information will come at a later date.

Pre-sales tickets for the Gravity tour are currently available on the band’s website. Each ticket purchased will include the option of receiving the band’s new album which will be released on June 29 through Spinefarm Records. Earlier this week, the band released the official music video for Gravity‘s lead single, “Over It.”

The Gravity tour is just another massive excursion to add to their lengthy list of 2018 tour dates. The band kicked off the new year by hitting the road with Avenged Sevenfold and next month, they will join Trivium and Toothgrinder on their springtime tour. This weekend, they will appear at Florida-based sister festivals Welcome to Rockville in Jacksonville and Fort Rock in Sunrise/Fort Lauderdale.

Bullet For My Valentine unleash video for ‘Over It’

With just a handful of days before they embark on their massive summer tour dates, Bullet For My Valentine have unleashed the music video for their new single. On Tuesday (April 24), the Welsh band released the almost four-and-a-half minute clip for their new tune, “Over It.” The clip predominately features the band inside of a dark room in which the only form of lighting comes from several slits in the roof.

The rest of the video follows a woman who seems to be in a dark place mentally. At the beginning of the video, the viewer watches as she floats in mid-air as if she had jumped off a ledge. As the video progresses, the woman is seen sitting and pacing in a darkly lit room and at one point, the viewer watches as thick, dark liquid begins to pour out of her mouth and eyes.

Towards the end of the video, the woman begins to spread the dark goo all over her skin and then tear at it revealing a bright galaxy hidden behind the darkness. Watch the music video for “Over It” above.

“Over It” is the lead single off Bullet For My Valentine’s upcoming sixth studio album, Gravity. Gravity is set to be released on June 29 through the band’s new home of Spinefarm Records. Earlier this month, the band confirmed the impending release of their new album by premiering the audio for “Over It” on BBC Radio 1.

In support of Gravity‘s release, the group previously announced a lengthy tour itinerary throughout the spring and summer months. Their upcoming tour will officially kick off this weekend with the band’s appearances at Florida-based sister festivals Welcome to Rockville in Jacksonville and Fort Rock in Sunrise/Fort Lauderdale. The group’s complete tour schedule can be found here.

Bullet For My Valentine announce new album with new song

Bullet For My Valentine are back! Three years after releasing their highest chart-placing record, the Welsh band has unveiled plans to release the much-anticipated follow-up to the 2015 hit. On Monday (April 2), the four-piece formally announced the title and release date for their sixth studio record. The new album will be titled Gravity and is set to be released on June 29 through the band’s new home of Spinefarm Records.

In addition to announcing the release date and title for the impending album, the group also unleashed its first single; a track titled “Over It.” The new tune made its worldwide debut on BBC Radio 1, but can currently be streamed above.

The new album’s announcement may not come as a surprise to many Bullet For My Valentine fans. Two years ago, the group announced they had signed with Spinefarm Records and a few days later posted on social media that they were working on “BFMV6.” Then, in November of 2016, the group released the music video for a brand new track titled “Don’t Need You.” Since the group has yet to release the track listing for Gravity, there is no word on if “Don’t Need You” will be featured on the new album.

Back in February, frontman Matt Tuck sat down with Loudwire to discuss the new album which, at the time, was just a work in progress. During the chat, Tuck revealed in what correction the band’s sound was going in with the new album as well as how the process of these new songs differed from their previous tunes.

“It’s a step in a more contemporary direction, musically. We kind of focused on the songs as a whole, and the weight of the song, rather than the technicality and the speed,” reveals Tuck.

“I think we wanted to do something that was bringing the band more into a 2018 vibe. We didn’t want to write a normal, stock, heavy metal record. We wanted to push ourselves creatively and incorporate new sounds and instrumentation and ways of songwriting. It was very challenging but now we’ve got to the other end [of the process]. We think it’s f-ing killer.”

In support of Gravity‘s release Bullet For My Valentine have a packed touring schedule which will find them on the road from late April all the way into early August. The complete list of upcoming tour dates can be found here.
