As I Lay Dying may have single-handedly rescued my morning with their brand new music video. They partnered up with Ultimate Guitar to premiere the band’s cover of Judas Priest’s hit song “Electric Eye.” This song comes off of AILD’s tenth anniversary album, Decas, presented by Metal Blade Records.

The band shows us their level of badass by fighting a huge scorpion, in the desert, while simultaneously performing their song. Truly something only a band of this stature could pull off. Wtach by heading past the link and enjoy!

This video was directed by Paul Brown (My Chemical Romance, Staind, Stone Sour) in the Mojave Desert of San Bernardino County, California.

AILD Frontman Tim Lambesis told UG:
“After a long day of sunburns and drought out in the desert I’m glad to be done fighting scorpions for the filming of Electric Eye. We came out victorious, but we probably couldn’t have done it without the classic metal inspiration of Halford and Priest’s legendary guitar melodies.”
