Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
In preparation for their new album, For The Demented, Ottawa, Ontario’s Annihilator has followed up with an explicit accompaniment to its fourth track, “Pieces of You.” How this nature is delivered proves not only blunt, but wholly gruesome – from the perspective of a cannibal. Pieces, in this context, refers not to a heartache cliche, but literal human flesh. The band’s mastermind, Jeff Waters, thereby warns that the video “…contains a graphic interpretation of a true crime story that includes potentially disturbing images and lyrical content.”
But despite the song and video’s challenging content, Waters simply deems inspiration as its catalyst.
“We realize this is not exactly the most pleasant subject to write about, however, in the world of being a writer and musician, sometimes these stories can spawn a song!” Expounding on its theme, Waters states, “This is about a criminally insane guy who murdered his ‘annoying’ girlfriend to ‘silence’ her voice. He then eats pieces of her, as a means of keeping her alive inside of him. Yeah, crazy, but when you watch horror movies, crime shows and own a few Cannibal Corpse t-shirts, this is tame in comparison.”
“Enjoy ‘Pieces Of You’, if you can!”
