APF025B – Flaxen Lust variant (translucent yellow with black marble effect) / APF025C – Surpirium Pink variant (side a / b pink and black) Since 2017, something has been lurking in the shadows around Merseyside, snarling from the unseen corners with a piercing horror-metal atmosphere; that something is Video Nasties, and they're ready to strike with their moral-panic inducing heaviness. Comprised from members from some of Liverpool's finest heavy exports in The Bendal Interlude, SSS, Magpyes and Iron Witch, the quintet mix death metal with punky and thrashy undertones, creating something morbidly macabre and devilishly debauched. With two single releases to their name prior to joining the ranks of APF - Halloween 2017's Transvoltum and 2018's Viva Deth (taken from their 2018 album demo) - Video Nasties set the scene with their own brand of grizzly black 'n' roll. A chunky instrumental section, complemented by the punishing tones of Damian Von Talbot on vocals, makes for a uniquely morbid vibe, hung on a background of grainy, retro-dread aesthetic. May 2019 saw them bring that chilling aura to Desertfest London, as they took over The Black Heart stage, playing a barnstorming set to a room packed out with victims of their blackened tones. Video Nasties finally brought their reign of terror to APF Records when they unleashed their debut full-length Dominion [APF025] in March 2020. The album was met with universal critical acclaim and has gone on to be the label’s best-selling release. In 2021 Video Nasties released a new single – Draw The Shades – which is available as a flexi disc in this vinyl package, will tour the UK with Gatecreeper in July, and play at this year’s Bloodstock Open Air Festival. Keep your eyes peeled for more news soon.
