RELEASE A NEW VIDEO/SINGLE
"BLACK AND YELLOW"
ft. on Lead Guitar - Chris Lorraine
The God Bombs will be opening for Orgy on 3/24 at the legendary Hollywood rock venue The Whisky A Go Go
Los Angeles, CA - '"Black and Yellow" - is the latest video in a series of collaborations between the God Bombs and LA-based Cinematographer/Director Jason Kaplan. The truth sometimes is best conveyed through music and art, both of which this collaboration between God Bombs lead vocalist - Justin Symbol, featured guitarist - Chris Lorraine, and Cinematographer Jason Kaplan has accomplished with their single "Black and Yellow".
ABOUT "BLACK AND YELLOW":
"The video explores the horror of corporate America, where talented humans are bled of their creativity and funneled into a meaningless "hive" system of work and drudgery. The concept began with the idea to have disgruntled office workers and an overbearing boss villain who would morph into some kind of bee creature with hives sprouting out of him. I like that it weaves a horror narrative with some elements of humor in the office environment, and of course, the band rocking out in the warehouse! It was helped along by some really great extras, friends of ours who showed up for the shoot in costume! (Humberto Meza, Dave Leon, and more).
Make-up artist, Autumn Lee, created great beehive prosthetics, and an actor friend ended up playing the Boss in an excellent performance. I spent days crafting the custom "beehive" guitar played by Chris Lorraine in the video. Later we added a band performance scene shot in an abandoned warehouse location that Jason found, thus finalizing an incredible video!
As well, a shout out to prop mistress Nichole Carillo who designed my glowing toxic "icicle" shaped microphone! We all hope you enjoy this collaboration as much as we do!"' - Justin Symbol, singer of The God Bombs

Special thanks - to Director/Cinematographer Jason Kaplan who made this video possible! I am honored by how our ongoing collaborations continue to grow and expand in scope and talent! Also to Chris Lorraine who channeled the ghost of Mr. Daisy Berkowitz with his amazing guitar leads on that fateful full-moon night in Hollywood. And of course, God Bombs bassist West Rozen, who sparked it all by writing the initial bass lines and concept for this song! Last but not least Keoki Trask, the ultimate behind-the-scenes team player who added a really cool programming and production touch that brought this song to the next level! This has turned out to be an amazing collaboration and an exciting first step toward the era known as GΩDHEAD!
