Avatar have released a new music video for their track New Land, taken from their 2016 album Feathers & Flesh.
Trying their hand at space exploration, the video comes shortly after the discovery of TRAPPIST-1, the dwarf star has been shown to host seven temperate terrestrial planets.
In a statement released by Avatar about the New Land video, the band say “The ‘new land’ mission will focus primarily on finding life and sustainable living conditions. Secondly we will look for harvestable resources such as various types of metal, lead, copper, zinc, thrash, death… that sort of thing.”
