    HIGH ON FIRE’s “FROST HAMMER” MUSIC VIDEO POSTED ONLINE

    Thursday, March 11th, 2010

    World renowned power trio HIGH ON FIRE has just released its critically lauded new album, Snakes for the Divine. Today, the band premieres its brand new music video – for the explosive track “Frost Hammer” — via Pitchfork.

    Filmed on location in both Los Angeles, CA and NYC with director Kevin Custer for Toaster in the Tub, HIGH ON FIRE’s “Frost Hammer” video showcases intense performance footage of the award-winning band juxtaposed alongside “the epic tale of a warrior’s sojourn to the cold and barren Plateau of Leng where he secures the fabled Frost Hammer that will be used to enact the final rites and complete the dark rebirth and reign of the Frost Child.” Check out Pitchfork’s world premiere of HIGH ON FIRE’s “Frost Hammer” video now HERE
