"Horrific Imagery" earns itself a red card - but YOU can check it out! MTV have banned the broadcast of The Berzerker's extreme video-clip "Reality" on the grounds of "horrific imagery", epilepsy-inducing flashing images and "ghoulish faces that would frighten children". The video, which was due to be aired this week on MTV's "Superock" show, treats us to rare visuals of the enigmatic maniacs intercut with eye-catching autopsy footage. The actual freakish appearance of the band is such that at no time will the ITC (Independent Television Commission) allow their faces to be shown during the daytime as it may traumatise young people, "switching on their televisions after getting back from school." Concerns were also raised regarding the rapid successive editing of flashing images within the video which has been known to induce epilepsy. The video has also been withdrawn from broadcast on tonight's Jo Whiley Show on Channel 4. **However, you CAN check out the video for yourselves!!!** The entire unedited video can be enjoyed on the Earache Website.
The Berzerker's critically acclaimed album 'The Berzerker' is out now on Earache Records.
