Clad in camo and shades of military green, The Hellfreaks have released their video for “Rootless Soul Riot” from their album Pitch Black Sunset.
On the video, the band says,
‘Rootless Soul Riot’ is the “last and first” music video to celebrate the release of our new album Pitch Black Sunset. This song was the very first video the band recorded for this album, and it’s the final one to be released from the tracklist…for now. Even back in high school, we always felt a deep camaraderie for the misfits, the freaks, and geeks – anyone that was not considered cool. That was our gang. That was our people. We gravitated towards them because these individuals were the ones who stood out, unlike the “cool kids” who were too afraid to embrace uniqueness.
They further add
In our eyes, the real souls with genuine hearts were the weirdos like us. That’s why our band, The Hellfreaks carry the name with purpose and see it as a badge of honor. Hand on heart, we all found solace in the community of metal, punk, or hardcore music because we rejected conformity and committed ourselves to living life on our own terms and being different personally and musically. We may not conform to any societal norms and definitely do not fit into one musical genre, but we have made it a point to be different because this is what we are.
