White Reaper’s [4] latest video for “Pills,” which was released today via Consequence of Sound [5], is a hyper realistic account of crazy; vivid and strangely relatable. Unlike "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest," where pills are controversial, White Reaper's mental state needs a double dose. This take on the classic mental patient is terrifying and kick-ass. Nurse Ratched's ward is a dreamland compared to the madness in "Pills." Tony Esposito face plants into a plate of eggs, talks to himself in a field of flowers, digs his own grave and crashes a pool party sporting Docs and a hospital gown covered in bodily fluids.
Aside from escaping the mental ward, White Reaper is hitting the road once more, but this time with tour dates in Canada and the U.K. In conjunction with the release of the video, the group released their 2015 world tour dates [6].
Check out our previous interview [7] with White Reaper, where the guys talked touring and Forecastle.
