Today prime horror portal Bloody Disgusting are hosting the
exclusive premiere of JOB FOR A COWBOY’s "Tarnished Gluttony" video. The
disturbing nine-and-a-half-minute clip was directed by Michael
Panduro (Saint Vitus, Cephalic Carnage), and comes off the band’s Demonocracy full-length,
issued earlier this year through Metal Blade Records.
Comments founding frontman Jonny Davey: “‘Tarnished
Gluttony’ originally runs off the idea of blind faith into our government and
monetary system. The director ran with the idea and spliced it with a H.P.
Lovecraftian twist. The video streams the fascination of religion and the
actions people justify in the name of religion, and this video is a spin on the
old biblical tale of Abraham and Isaac, however, set in the world of
Lovecraftian mythology. The point is, acting blindly in faith to a Christian
deity is just as absurd as worshiping squid like monsters from space who live
under the sea.”
Adds Panduro: "As a commercial director, I'm
a complete failure. The band asked for just one thing and I couldn't deliver.
Indeed, this video has no boobs."

Called “…an ass-kicking, skull-cracking record,” by
Alternative Press and “…a very strong exercise in slickly-produced, technically
sound death metal…” by Decibel,Demonocracy tackles a host of
political and economic themes and continues to raise the eyebrows of fans and
media alike. Don’t miss the band on Summer Slaughter this summer! Check

“Fans of the band’s death metal era will be blown away by
this one, and fans of death metal (and tech-death) in particular will not want
to miss this.”– Mxdwn
“Demonocracy affords JOB FOR A COWBOY another
album to legitimize their death metal sound, which was set forth starting with
Ruination…Bringing in guitarist Tony Sannicandro and Cephalic Carnage bassist
Nick Schendzielos translates to dynamics not heard on any JOB FOR A
COWBOY album to date…” — About.com
“The album plays like a constant assault, and while never
backing off it still manages to add enough structure for individual songs to
become memorable… the soloing is surprisingly catchy and well-executed while
still managing to sit well in the context of the songs.” — Ultimate-Guitar
“There is only so much bone crushing metal a body can
take. JOB FOR A COWBOY does a very good job of biting your
synapses, chewing you up and spitting you out bruised and bloody.” – This Is
Not A Scene
