Kerry King - Toxic (Official Music Video) Official music video for “Toxic” from the new KERRY KING album “From Hell I Rise”, out now via Reigning Phoenix Music. “We’re at a point where political fatigue has set in and become an issue for most people who live in our country no matter what side of the coin they land on. In an election year that feeling is going to start elevating to new heights as we prepare for what’s next in America. The lyrics and energy of the song showcase that sentiment so I wanted to create something visually that almost feels like a trailer for what we are about to experience. I also wanted to address PTSD for people who have serviced in the military and how the increased political landscape affects their mental health which often goes unnoticed. I clearly wanted to take it as far as I could with this example.“ -Jim Louvau KERRY KING - “Toxic” - Music Video Credits Directed by: Jim Louvau & Tony Aguilera Edited by: Tony Aguilera & Julius Aguilar Cinematography: Tony Aguilera, Jim Louvau, & Julius Aguilar Treatment: Jim Louvau Grip: Robert Davis & Tony Aguilera Producers: Jim Louvau & Tony Aguilera Location: Madhouse Studio PHX BTS: Julius Aguilar Set Design: Robert Davis, Jim Louvau, Tony Aguilera For his debut album, From Hell I Rise, due out May 17 on Reigning Phoenix Music, King, on guitar, enlisted drummer Paul Bostaph (Slayer), bassist Kyle Sanders (Hellyeah), Phil Demmel (formerly Machine Head) on guitar, and vocalist Mark Osegueda (Death Angel).
