The weekly tally of the best new music videos from the world of heavy music in the Countdown to Oblivion have crowned it's most recent winner.
In a week that included a field of heavyweight competitors, the latest collaboration between LA noise purveyors HEALTH and groove metal Goliath Lamb of God has reached the coveted number one spot.
“Cold Blood” presents a masterful meld of HEALTH’s cinematic scope, accentuated with Lamb of God guitarist Willie Adler’s crippling fretwork and vocalist Randy Blythe’s relentless vocal command. The project emphasizes the cross-section of heavy that exists between two polarized, powerful styles and is obviously resonating well with fans.

Jazz-inspired off-kilter drumming, funky leads all over the place and a vocalist with a silky smooth clean voice and the screams to back it up, Fall Europa bring an interesting take on a genre we all know and love, and mark themselves as a name to keep an eye on.
CHAMPION: HEALTH x Lamb of God - Cold Blood
