First music video off BRAIN DRILL'S upcoming album, Quantum Catastrophe, now live on Bloody Disgusting!
Horror movie site Bloody Disgusting exclusively premiers Santa Cruz tech-death metal outfit Brain Drill's new music video for the track Beyond Bludgeoned
AGOURA HILLS, Calif. - April 19, 2010 - Head over to premier horror movie site Bloody Disgusting to check out technical death metalers BRAIN DRILL's brand new music video for the track Beyond Bludgeoned off the band's upcoming sophomore release Quantum Catastrophe. The video for Beyond Bludgeoned was filmed back in February out in the San Joaquin Delta/Rio Vista, CA area and was directed by Nikko DeLuna and shot by Justin Potter.
BRAIN DRILL will once again take fans on a mind-melting voyage through the boundaries of exactly how incredible technical death metal can be. Quantum Catastrophe continues to push the band to their physical limits while somehow still exhibiting their trademark and infectious hook-laden riffs. Fan should expect an exponentially more technical and brutal release than they got with the band's Metal Blade debut Apocalyptic Feasting. The song structures are way more over the top than before and the riffs catchier than before, which was a natural progression for the band as BRAIN DRILL's goal is to push the limits of what they can do musically and technically. With Quantum Catastrophe, BRAIN DRILL truly does push themselves to the limits.
Quantum Catastrophe was recorded at Castle Ultimate Studios in Oakland, CA with Zach Ohren, who handled engineering mastering and produced the album along with the band. Bassist Ivan Munguia got to show off his guitar skills on the tracks "Mercy to None" and "Awaiting Imminent Destruction" which he wrote and recorded.
Vocalist Steve Rathjen explains the concept behind Quantum Catastrophe; "Universal decimation (black holes, galactic cosmic radiation), pandemic disease and zombie re-awakenings - mankind is entering an age of mass speculation as foreseen by numerous ancient cultures. Space to all humanity still primarily remains a mystery even in our days of immense technological advancements. We know this void is filled with infinite extremities which could occur at any instant; easily decimating all habitations. We also know our planet has fulfilled these mass extinctions time and again centuries in the past. The question which remains, are we due for another apocalyptic transition?"
Guitarist Dylan Ruskin adds some insight into the musical process; "The album was definitely a huge accomplishment in the chronicling of the drill. The musical dynamics and skill level of everyone in the band have improved much more than the previous album. The songs are more technical and musically diverse but are also well balanced and catchy."
Quantum Catastrophe again features cover art by Par Olofsson. The over the top cover art perfectly complements the nearly unbelievable musicianship present on the record.

BRAIN DRILL launches new design on MySpace, posts new track, works on first music for 'Quantum Catastrophe'!
AGOURA HILLS, Calif. - February 12, 2010 - In preparation for their recently completed, second full-length album Quantum Catastrophe, Santa Cruz, CA technical death metalers BRAIN DRILL have completely redesigned their MySpace page to feature the cover art created by Par Olofsson (www.parolofsson.se). In addition to the complete overhaul of the band's page, BRAIN DRILL have also posted the new track Monumental Failure.
Bassist Ivan Munguia comments; "Monumental Failure has a couple of the most mosh inducing riffs on the new album Quantum Catastrophe, but it also showcases the direction we are heading in terms of songwriting. Monumental Failure was one of the first songs written for the Quantum Catastrophe so in a way, we're easing listeners into some of the more complex songs that we wrote."
In other news; BRAIN DRILL recently shot footage for their first music video for the upcoming album Quantum Catastrophe for the track Beyond Bludgeoned. The video was shot in the middle of nowhere near Birds Landing close to the San Joaquin Delta/Rio Vista, CA and was directed by Nikko DeLuna and shot by Justin Potter.
Bassist Ivan Munguia comments; "This guy that Nikko knows had a hookup that let us onto this utility company owned land. There was a dilapidated old house and some pretty cool scenery so we figured it was a good spot to shoot. We picked Beyond Bludgeoned as the first video because we feel it's one of the strongest songs on the album and showcased everyone's contributions to the album."
Quantum Catastrophe will be available everywhere on May 11th. More information including, tour dates and track listing, will be announced in the months leading up to the release of Quantum Catastrophe.
