#songoftheday / NSFW VIDEO: CAIRO KNIFE FIGHT: “REZLORD”

“Give me what I want / It’s not only the victim / Who wears the scars,” goes Cairo Knife Fight’s “Rezlord,” a tune about all sorts of forbidden sex.  Things like bondage and suffocation.  And the video shows you precisely what it’s about, but it’s not the video that’s made us select “Rezlord” as our #songoftheday — it’s the fact that it kicks some major ass and blurs all sorts of genres in the best way possible.  There’s a hint of a grunge vibe and a dash of post rock, but mostly what it reminds us of is good, old fashioned heavy metal, the vocals a dead ringer for Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider.  If Twisted made a new album today and didn’t try to sound like their old stuff, this is what it would probably sound like.  And we do mean that as a compliment.  A big one, in fact.  So, if you like hard rock/heavy metal and you’re into videos about sex, click play above and check out one of the freshest songs we’ve heard in months.  But if you don’t wish to see the video, you can play the song on Soundcloud below:
