Chiodos’ forthcoming LP, Devil, currently slated for an April 1 release via Razor & Tie, has found its way on to a lot of “most anticipated” lists recently. It will be the group’s first effort since the return of founding member Craig Owens, as well as their first to feature the guitar stylings of Thomas Erak (The Fall of Troy), so understandably, there’s a lot to be excited about.

As April Fools Day draws nearer, it seems more and more that the outfit is just as enthusiastic as their fans, having vowed to debut a new single off the album every Tuesday. Earlier this morning, Chiodos made good on their promise by premiering the music video for their newest track, “Duct Tape,” exclusively through Revolver Magazine.

The video, which can be viewed here, is a strange one, to say the least. Made up of a series of bizarre and often discomforting clips, and coming complete with its own disclaimer, Keyboardist Brad Bell told Revolver that, “The imagery is very stimulating and evokes emotions that might be uncomfortable to some people. That’s kind of what the song represents to me in general-getting over your insecurities that hold you back and taking the next step.”

In the coming months, Chiodos will embark on a nationwide tour with the help of Hands Like Houses, Our Last Night, 68 Hits, and a newly reformed Emarosa; if that sounds too good to pass up, you can find out more here.
