New Alien Weaponry Song

2021-06-16 by Fernando Alves | 6 Comments
New Zealand's metallers Alien Weaponry shared the title track off their upcoming sophomore release Tangaroa, out September 17th, 2021 via Napalm Records. Watch the official music video below.


Video Production - Kwasnik Pictures & AW Noise Ltd.
Director - Alex Hargreaves.

Lead vocalist and guitarist Lewis de Jong says about the track:
"We decided to write this song about how the ocean is being suffocated by humans and their waste. The ocean is an important part of my life, and it's important to protect it."

Drummer Henry de Jong adds:
" 'Tangaroa' is a heavy and angry message about how we are destroying the ocean with pollution and overfishing. The video ties in with this message, with us drowning in plastic conveying the struggle of ocean life."

Henry de Jong says about Tangaroa:
"The album is tied together with the message of 'Tangaroa' - the whole album is more a snapshot of the band’s brains during the writing process. We have also written songs that are about some of our first tūpuna (ancestors) who were here in Āotearoa (New Zealand). Hatupatu, who is very famous in Māori history, as well as Īhenga, who named a number of places in Āotearoa during his travels."

Tangaroa tracklist:

1. Titokowaru
2. Hatupatu
3. Ahi Kā
4. Tangaroa
5. Unforgiving
6. Blinded
7. Kai Whatu
8. Crooked Monsters

11. Īhenga
12. Down The Rabbit Hole

I feel like this band gets hyped a lot because of their ages and the novelty of singing in Maori but their music is just okay.

Their music is just okay but they are very young and have a ton of potential. This is already better than most anything of their debut.

And they integrate the Maori quite well.
