MANNTIS also completed a new video for the track "Weathered Soul" with up-and-coming director Robert Hall (Josh Todd, feature film Lightening Bug).

Our sound is stronger than ever with the addition of our new drummer Andre. We also have a new video on Headbangers Ball for the track "Weathered Soul," which was directed by Robert Hall. That guy is extremely creative and talented and put together an amazing video that fits well with the song. We tried to do something a little more old school this time, which was really cool because it reminds us of the metal videos we watched when we were growing up. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out." The group's critically acclaimed new album, *Sleep In Your Grave*, produced by Cameron Webb (Danzig, Motorhead, Social Distortion), is now available and goes straight for the jugular with its scorching guitar work and pummeling rhythmic assault.
