- NAPALM DEATH - Contagion (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
Taken from the album "Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism", out September 18th, 2020. Get it here: napalmdeath.lnk.to/ThroesofJo...
Video directed by Marc Nickel / Ljuba Generalova
Production Company: Ljuba Generalova
Special thanks to Alex Gohari for all the help and support!
NAPALM DEATH frontman Mark ‘Barney’ Greenway comments about the special topic covered within the song and clip as follows: “Although we can only hope to provide a snapshot in four-minutes, what we wanted to try to illustrate with the “Contagion” video is how difficult it has been made to do something as fundamental as moving freely as a human being. There is downright absurdity in that some people have to resort to mortal danger doing things like riding atop trains whilst others can move seamlessly and freely without a second thought. We advocate for an end to borders of all description. Complementing that, the sweaty live footage was shot brilliantly by Ljuba Generalova in NAPALM DEATH’s virtual second home of Berlin and the music, you might say, just motors along like a train.”
And NAPALM DEATH bassist Shane Embury, who wrote the music and the lyrics for “Contagion”, added as follows: “Musically, “Contagion” is geared towards manic intense live mosh pit action but with an added 4AD noise quirk homage chorus! Also, having so many friends in the Latin community, through a couple of them I learned and read about the perilous journeys that families embark on for the chance at a better life. As a parent, I think of my children’s future all the time - the things we take for granted I wanted to reflect lyrically!”
CONTAGION
(music and lyrics: Embury)
Perilous is the heart that thrives
Towards a new life is what they strive
Blood is lost as debts are paid
Against all odds In a jungle maze
Steam burns and skin is cracked
Families huddle on the roof racks
Boldly robbed in the nights glare
Human prey for corporate fare
Contagion
Greed is a contagion refined with a soulless poison
They negotiate in innocence with a greed that's infectious
Back to back on the spine of the beast
Willing to die if that's what it takes
Towards lands that refuse to accept
And build walls to blind eyes to the deaths
Out of fear they run and hide
A glimpse of rapture their one true guide
The quest for what we take for granted
What should be done to help those disenchanted?
Contagion
Greed is a contagion refined with a soulless Poison
They negotiate in innocence with a greed that's infectious
Blood soaked currency dictating their doctrine
Baneful sadists
Greed is a contagion
Babies are hoisted aboard the carrion
Negotiations to escape
(Limbs upon limbs) bodies fall in the throes of sleep
Or in the humid darkness are raped
Summoning courage without guarantees
There's no going back, every minute they've seized
(Violent extortion) The brutalities of this inhuman course, as their fragile governments try to enforce
Contagion

Amazing riff
This has a groove metal vibe to it.
Niños no destrucción yeah
l'immagine di Dio
As the crowd get older, Barney looks like he's getting younger.
That's because his demon has his back
The price for glorious music. The toll will be paid
Nice
Ngl in the thumbnail he weirdly resembles fuckin Jared Dines
As long as he keeps performing he will never age.
@@TheRyanH. just a tiny tiny tiny bit, I kind of see the resemblance..
You beat me 2 it ...
Jim Carrey brought me here.. 😂❤
Me too
X3
Not me.
Fuck offffff🤣🤣 same hahahahaha
We are in the matrix
Imagine being 52 and being able to scream that fucking powerful still after 35+ years of doing it. Barney will forever be one of my favorite vocalists.
i'm 52 too and listening to nd since 1988 ! and screaming from then !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You'd be surprised what you can do as you get older!
And they sound unbelievably amazing live.
@WungusBill Just wish he was able to return to the Harmony Corruption sound. If you've ever seen them live, his vocals sound way deeper than any recording that he's been on. I was lucky enough to see them in 1994 with Carcass at the Hollywood Palladium.
It’s because he takes care of his vocal chords and his body. Not like that Chris Barnes guy who smokes his vocal chords to death and now he can’t growl for shit.
That punk vibe that Napalm Death has I think is what keeps their music fresh and heavier
Yes i'm getting some Hardcore, Punk, Death Metal and even Blackmetal vibes.
Barney carries the hardcore punk flag, though other guys from the band also. But Barney is a real hardcore punk nerd. You can hear him talk hours after hours about this topic, his favorite bands, and new scene. He's very much into all happenings from underground hardcore scene. I thought earlier that he's just a frontman that happened to like some stuff, but didn't expect that he's consciously and religiously following the scene and new developments.
Which is not surprising at all when you put Napalm in context of 80s UK hardcore scene from which they came and which they carry with them from early days, although they did change a sound more than a handful of times. They still radiate those influences.
Guys go have a listen to the grind war channel on TH-cam. I’m 37 and have found some just unbelievable artists recently on this channel. Some bands are carrying a nice crossover of many sub genres in one song, and it’s pure carnage in most punk as fuck form. Much love from Australia
@@iachtulhu1420yeah but there would be no grind without first wave black, thrash and death metal. And there would be no hardcore without speed and heavy metal
I love it when they do ballads like this.
It's beautiful isn't it?
A love song so Devine.
Yeah, is so fuckin' romantic❤
YOU DONT BRING ME FLOWERS!!!!!
Barney looks like he should be Napalm's accountant.
Seeing Napalm and Obituary together remains one of my favorite shows of all time
Barney just looks so unassuming to front a band like Napalm Death. And that's why he's perfect for the gig.
More so now IMO than when he joined the band. He's developed himself to be eloquent, yet funny in interviews as well without being too wonky.
Why is it good that he's so unassuming?
My take? If you saw Barney out on the sidewalk, and didn't know who he was you'd think he's just another face in the crowd.
This guy has the best death metal voice of all time. Prove me wrong
NSK (teitanblood), Rory Flay (triumvir foul), T. Kaos (lvcifyre)
No chance. He is the best!
You don't like Chris Barnes when he goes "EEEEEeeeeee....EEEEEEEEeeeeee?"
Jim Carrey does it better
Napalm have stuck to their roots Grind/Death I remember seeing them in 88 with about 50 people there ..The played and then had a few beers with the crowd. Wrexham labour club .Wow the bands that played there legendary...
Just heavy netal.....🤠🤫👿🧛
Napalm Death are an institution. So many line-up changes, ups and downs, yet the band never stopped and still manages to deliver solid performances and brilliant albums.
The line up has been pretty stable since 1989, with the exception of Jesse leaving and then passing away. Mitch is still considered part of the band, he even played on this album. He just stepped away from touring due to family issues. Whether or not he returns remains to be seen. I'm still hoping will see Mitch back again someday. If he doesn't I wonder if John Cooke will become of full member?
Barney the Mick Jagger of metal
I love Napalm Death so much. And this latest album of theirs is simply splendid from start to finish. Barney's voice is the incarnation of rage
His vocals puts so much energy into their music. That's for damn sure.
Who's the new guy on guitar?
I've never 100% agreed with a Quentin before, it's bloody magnificent
@@philipdeppen8593
Excellent tune! Barney keeps getting better with age!!
the years pass and the power is still immense
Decades upon decades🤘⏳
The beast passes through my state in Mexico and I have walked those roads, it seems incredible that they have made a song about it, I feel more proud of my country, a hug guys.
This is the dumbest comment in the entire history of TH-cam comments that I have read in the last few minutes. You are super proud of your country because it is such an insufferable crime and poverty ridden hellhole that people will do crazy shit to get out? Me is a lil bit confusafied.
How you feel proud of your country when its failed and everyone is trying to flee it? LMFAO
Not a thing to be proud about , many people die or are killed for riding it
Cheers from across the water mate !
I saw these dude on " new Titans on the block tour" San Antonio Texas, 1992 with Sepultura headlining, Sacred Reich and sick of it all. I was 21. I'm 51 now an those days were wild.
Barney have a contract with the devil and does not change. Legend!🤘
Was thinking the same - Barney and Bill Steer, the dudes like barely age🤘🤘
Except I that his vocals have been cooked for well over a decade now!
Veganism
@kha Z yeah sure clever boy
Eating well, remaining mentally involved with your life and world, and staying generally goal focused keeps you younger
I’m ashamed to say that I’ve only seen Napalm Death once and that was when they were supporting Glassjaw. I went to the gig not knowing who was supporting but I could hear this beautiful heavy music playing as I neared the hall and when I went in there was Barney and Napalm doing their thing with a lot of scared audience members staring in disbelief. Fantastic band.
HUGE GLASSJAW FAN RIGHT HERE!!! Lol I still listen to glassjaw daily and I first heard and seen them whenever I seen the deftones for the second Time.
@@patefutch6168 I do like Glassjaw, they’re a great band and I did like Deftones until I saw them live at Wembley arena a few years ago and I didn’t enjoy them live one bit. I’ve struggled to listen to them since.
I'm ashamed to say I've only seen Napalm Death nonce. They were playing a city over literally the day before I needed to get a fucking colonoscopy. Kill me.
@@jsksnob3562 there uses to be some small clubs in Cardiff and Newport where they always seemed to play but at the time I knew who they were but wasn’t enough of a fan of theirs to go see them. If only I had known back then what I know now.
Brilliant as always! Napalm Death are more relevant than ever!
Shame on me if it ain't, but is this the real Dirk?
NAPALM DEATH are getting better and bigger with each consecutive album.Only a few bands played this fast and also loud.They deserve a big respect.They are the pride of our music.
Deicide is a legendary band as well 👍👍
Entombed?
@@nicholasamato3015 Yes,but early ENTOMBED.
Morbid Angel
?
As the world changes, Napalm remains at the top!
Just coming back to check out these guys after many years, Im sorry to have been away!!! They only got better with age! The vocals are better than ever, the band is damn tight! OK I'm back on board!!!! Saw them live many moons ago, one of the best nights of my life, Im getting older but this makes me feel young!!!!
Nobody is as pissed off as Barney, love that guy!
I'm a simple man I see a new napalm death video I click on it. Greetings from Milwaukee. Milwaukee means metal. 🤘
My sister introduced me with this band .... love her
Nobody can sound so crushing, brutal, vicious and oblivious as Napalm freaking Death. This is pure armageddon !
Perfect funeral song.
That's true too. But as a music fan, I prefer other styles. I hear this music differently, more as a criticism and expression of frustration from the then political-military occupying power in the 1970s against the Americans in Vietnam. Napalm Death, Agent Orange.
By the way, the drummer is great.
Barney looks like he's ready to go to school!
La mejor banda de la historia... Para mi.
Napalm Death nunca decepciona!
consegui até entender o riff...
Com todo o respeito ao Lee Dorian, mas o vocal do Barney é muito desgraçado !
AMO TUDO ISSO !! ☠💀☠
Dale
ya no esta mitch harris?
Nunca!!!
Im 52 and i listened to napalm death since i was a teenager.damn how time flies
Napalm Death will always have my respect, a badass band that influenced many hardcore bands.
Barney is a Killing Machine!!
Growing up I always heard stories from my parents, uncles, cousins about crossing into America. Each tale had a similar thing. The complete fear and uncertainty of the journey. I'm blown away by how Shane captured that feeling in this one track.
There wouldn't be fear of uncertainty if they had applied for citizenship. Travelling somewhere without concrete plans to solidify your move is a gamble.
@@samhain6953 You an expert on immigration laws?
@@AnthonyJstark-vz4so its easy for some Americans to talk when they themselves never been in those peoples shoes
@@converge5374 i agree..immigration laws apply differently depending what country you're coming from.
@@samhain6953 The haves and the have nots, Sam. Also, a lot of these people do not have time or money to spare when their lives are in danger. Read up on why people migrate.
Thank you Jim Carrey for leading me to this piece of art.
Cannibal Corpse was the band in Ace Ventura
@@dspsblyuth There was a interview where Jim Carrey talked about Napalm Death.
@@dspsblyuth funny how you opened your mouth before your mind. I'm not talking abouth Ace Ventura or the film. There was an interview where he talked a lot about this band and how he got into metal music.
@@timeshiftervnb I may open my mouth but you know what isn’t open?
Your chakras
@@dspsblyuth ow really? Have a brain at least.
Why does metal media not recognize Napalm Death’s true influence and value on the evolution of metal? You hear many names but not usually theirs. These guys have produced mind bending albums and shows over the 40 years they’ve been active and they stayed true to their creation. If anyone here from media reads this please give these guys the credit they really deserve!!!
Absolutely brilliant. Never disappoints. RIP JP much love from your brothers in HP California. Missing the early backyard days at Eric's garage and over Maie and 83rd
Awesome how this came out before COVID.
Napalm Death survive covid lockdowns and every other terror created by mankind since the 80s... comeback stronger and more relevant than ever !
Twice this year I missed Napalm Death. Definitely want to see them next year
i am 48 years old i'm napalm death fan from 1990 i meet them with the album harmony corruption and y they are the best
Bin 46Jahre alt. Wir sind unkaputtbar 🍻🎸😉🤟
Ashamed to say this is first I'm hearing of Napalm Death. But excited to say I fucking love it and wanna hear some more! 😁🤘🏻🔥
Welcome!
Dude you got almost 40 years of back catalog to go thru. Epic band. I suggest start at the beginning and work forward.
Harmony Corruption will be a mega treat, especially
@@glasgowdmon Hellll yes
Listen to "suffer the children". One of their best songs
This band will always be in my top 5 musical acts of all time. 💀🤘
This song is one of their best can't stop listening to it

What, over 4 Minutes? Is this a complete Album?
Goddamn legends, i love their songs like this where Barney sings a little. Amazing!!!
2021=the year that keeps gifting us new Metal that doesn't suck
I realize it's not necessarily a new song, but new video counts right?
I love the fact I live in the same world as Barney and Shane.
Have been listening to Napalm Death since the late 80's, and they are like a freight train plowing through the years picking up momentum as they go and not slowing down. Thanks for the relentless dedication over the years.
Napalm death nunca destiñe desde Conchalí Santiago D 🔥🌶️🇨🇱🌶️🔥 un saludo a todos Ustedes, escuchando esta mierda a todo volumen
This shit went hard as fuck in the mosh pit last night. Barney is still fucking killing it.
*Barney* is literally the *Johnny Depp* of *Grindcore.*
Nope... Robert de Niro of Grindcore
Keanu is the Barney of Hollywood.
@@alfianbanjaransari4096 i laughed so much with that 🤣🤣🤣
Best Vocalist The World !👺💪🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥
Barney ages better than wine! I hope we have another decade of Napalm Death to conquer the world!
I got to see them live a few years ago with Municipal Waste. Now that was a concert!!!!!!!!!
Was never super into ND. Even having seen em a few times decades ago. But they are fking killin this sht. Personally might be my favorite thing they've done. And this far into their career...i salute. Full on Pit anthem.
Nice one guys. Sounds amazing.
Gracias por visitar Uruguay!!
SKULL CRUSHING AS ALWAYS!!!👍😈💀
That last album is one their best from the past ten years
I like early ND as much as the next guy but their last four albums are my faves, they just keep getting better!!
I don't know how Barney does it... the older he gets the more savage his vocals become. Like a rabid dog... fucking unreal.
Met Barney once in the backstage of a concert in Ireland. One of the most nicest guys I met.
Holy fuck! Better than I expected.
Me encanta este vídeo,es buenísimo,los conozco,con eso me basta, Napalm Death vive en mi corazón.
Fantastic song, fantastic riffs, fantastic clip,
hi guys from NAPALM DEAAAAAAT👏
The best of brutal legends ! This album is insane !!!!!
Since I bought the "Harmony Corruption" LIVE VHS tape in 1992 at the age of 14, this has been one of my favorite bands, and the reason I got into extreme music. True kings of grind. I will never stop supporting this band. Im now a middleaged bold man, and these guys still rock. Amazing.
Getting Killing Joke on double-espresso vibes.
Good call. Yep I hear that too.
KJ vibes for a long time now. Very influential for these dudes.
Listened to yall forever
barney looks like he is so friendly
Great song This Band is Brutal 🤘
cool tune, always been a fan right from the mermaid pub days, met a few of them in the costamungers pub in brum also,
Exellent! Loved em since the beginning
Absolutely grinds
Uma obra de arte.
Good job guys! Napalm Death is immortal. The end of the song is so great!!! Long live ND !!!
Barney's vocals sound like ripping a tree in half long ways
Barney's vocals are incredible.
The lyrics man! Supreme
Insano 👀🤘🔥
It's a beautiful song! Hugs from Ilhabela/Brazil!
Killer. Flat Out. We (judge Mental) had the HONOR of opening for Napalm Death at Sneakers in San Antonio, Texas in 1996 or 97. They stomped us and everything that got in their way. Great talent. Metal will never die.
NAPALM DEATH, EYEHATEGOD, GWAR next week,i have been waiting for this show for a long time
i remember my band opening for them in 2012. they were coolas fuck to hang with. also got a 1993 EP on a 12' vinyl signed by them. super fun time
that's so cool 👍🏻
👍👍👍nice...
Barney's and guys still grinding hell yeah 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Summer Breeze 1st Edition, April 30th, 2023, São Paulo, Brazil, I was there and I watched this masterpiece breaking the sound barrier, Napalm Death made a badass concert!
KILLER SHOW LAST NIGHT IN TORONTO...TY FOR THE EXTENDED SET!!
GWAR KILLED RIGHT AFTER THEM!!
AMAZING!!
THE GREAT SONG
Fantastic song and video! This is awesome!
Thank you for the music!!
Man, Barney's vocals are actually getting better and better. And that's not an empty compliment, I really like his vocals more than ever.
Just woke up, making some coffee while listening to this. Splendid!!
Can't imagine a better way to start the day.
Caught them live for the first time ever last weekend. Incredible. Built to last ❤
It’s great when the lyrics show empathy to those the politicians try so hard to dehumanize while still having such pummeling music that would make said politicians very uncomfortable.
Dont know how old Barney is, but damn he is energetic!!! I wish i were half his drive...
He's in his mid 50s i think. Just saw Napalm Death in Florida last night and they put on a hell of a show!
I just saw them in a Dallas and they act like their still in their 20s
THANK YOU for this, very enjoyable.
I needed this song.
This song literally soothes me. Anyone else?
