“R.I.B. (Rest In Beer)”, the new video from German beer lovers and cult thrashers TANKARD, can be seen below. The clip was filmed in March under the direction of Jan Öhlenschläger in Frankfurt.

“R.I.B. (Rest In Beer)” is the title track of TANKARD‘s new album, which will be released on June 20 via Nuclear Blast. The follow-up to 2012’s “A Girl Called Cerveza” was recorded at Studio 23 in Frankfurt, Germany.

Taking inspiration from the motto “never change a winning team,” TANKARD worked with producer Michael Mainx (BÖHSE ONKELZDER WD-A-DDISBELIEF), who helmed the band’s last effort. TANKARD has also chosen to use Patrick Strogulski, who created the artwork for “A Girl Called Cerveza” and is also a student of Sebastian Krüger, the artist that was responsible for TANKARD‘s previous album artwork up to the 2012 release.

States TANKARD vocalist Andreas “Gerre” Geremia: “‘R.I.B.’ continues the story of ‘Chemical Invasion’. The crazy professor is back is takes revenge on mankind, because he failed in 1987! The cover is done again by Patrick Strogulski, an apprentice of Sebastian Krüger and really hits the spot! As always with TANKARD, things shouldn’t be taken too seriously!”

States Gerre about the track: “A man has been suffering from sudden symptoms of drunkenness. For a long time he has been accused of alcoholism, but then his strange and rare disease was discovered by medics. The man suffers from the so-called self-brewery-syndrome. A form of yeast inside his stomach is feeding on sugar and not only produces carbon dioxide, but also alcohol. A true story, calling for TANKARD to use for their lyrics! A real thrasher that will be given the second official video of the new album!”
