Protest The Hero just dropped a brand new lyric video if you really want to call it that… I’d call it a music video with the lyrics thrown in for shits n giggles. And I’d call it an awesome, hilarious video at that.

The “Clarity” video digs up the age old nerd debate of Star Trek vs Star Wars. And you better believe Han shot first. Watch the madness down below and keep an eye out for the epic twist at the end. Things may get nerdier than you expect.

Protest The Hero have certainly built up some major hype this year. The super talented five-piece made news all over the place when they threw crowdfunding into the eyes of the metal community when their Indiegogo campaign smashed through its goal of $125,000 in a day, and finished just under a huge sum of $350,000. Shortly after they announced that in the absence of their drummer, who left the band, Chris Adler (Lamb of God) filled in and brought with him his drum style that, according to PtH, added a much more metal vibe to the new record. Then seemingly in spite of the successful Indiegogo campaign, Protest the Hero signed licensing deals with multiple record labels to distribute and promote their new album.

Protest the Hero’s extremely highly anticipated 4th studio album will be titled “Volition” and will be released October 29th. In November, the band will embark on a world tour in support of their new album. The multiple licensing deals that the band has signed will allow “Volition” to be distributed all over physically and digitally. Speaking of which, pre-orders are now available here.

PROTEST THE HERO IS BACK!
