Lightning Bolt Releases "The Metal East" Animated Video

Long-running noise duo Lightning Bolt recently dropped the forbidden bounty of new full-length, "Fantasy Empire," upon the masses. Commemorating its release and serving as a precursor to forthcoming live assaults, Lightning Bolt is pleased to unveil the official new video for first single, "The Metal East."

Created by New York City-based animator and illustrator Lale Westvind, the trippy, delightfully kaleidoscopic clip initially premiered during Adult Swim Sunday night and is currently traumatizing eyes below.
