Corners of Sanctuary guitarist Mick Michaels has checked in with the following comment: We planned to include a heavier visual support for Metal Machine, more than we had done in the past with previous albums.Expect at least two more videos to follow in the coming months.

The Wrecking Ball video, as with the previous one, was produced and directed by Philadelphia-area Indie artist Zen Say. who stated: "It's been a pleasure working with Corners of Sanctuary and sharing ideas across multiple mediums".

"Wrecking Ball" incorporates the now public domain scenes from the 1936 British science-fiction film, “Things to Come” – an adaptation of H.G. Well’s story depicting a world at war. The original film was produced by Alexander Korda and directed by William Cameron Menzies. The music video is also laced with on location shots filmed with the band.

The video's message is centered on the horror and devastation brought on during such conflicts and the effects it has on every walk of life. "Though the clips of the movie are based on a fictional story, the reality of what war holds is all too real to simply dismiss," added Zen Say.

"Wow, holy freakin’ fudge pop intense," exclaimed lead singer Frankie Cross, who again finds himself the focal point of the video's imagery.

"This song captures the horror, patriotism and pride of war while the images convey a seriously, emotional landscape. The metaphor of the song will be clearly felt by some... like a wrecking ball, “stated lead singer Frankie Cross when asked about his take on the video's backdrop of war for the song. ”It's just so beautifully frantic... the true star is the production team," he added.

Corners of Sanctuary is currently supporting Metal Machine with a string of live performances throughout 2016 including shows with Butcher Babies, Mind Assassin, and Killen along with performances at the 2016 NEPA Metal Meltdown Festival and this summer’s Metal Eternal Fest Tour.

On Sept 13th Germany's STAINLESS STEEL are back with “Metal Machine"!

STAINLESS STEEL are back with “Metal Machine”! on Pure Underground Records

After the Karthago Release of “Molten Metal in your Back” the band kept very quiet. But now STAINLESS STEEL have got together again - like many 80s bands- and they are still true to pure Heavy Metal! Their new album sounds like it was directly from the 80s and many of the songs have been composed in the time in between, which gives you a very good impression of the bands development but, of course, this is nonsense. What do we mean by development? The band still is true 80s and this is perfect. No one needs 80s bands who want to sound modern. In many cases this is a catastrophe. If you should have accidentally confused STAINLESS STEEL from Germany with STAINLESS STEEL from Hungary, you will also get traditional Metal. But if it’s the same quality, that’s for you to decide!

1. Back In Your Minds

2. Master Of The Universe

3. Preachers Of Hate

4. Fear And Pain

5. Disaster

6. Kiss Of Judas

7. Fight To Survive

8. Riding On A Razorblade

9. Dirty Love

10. Death And Destruction

11. Hold On

12. We Want It – You’ve Got It

13. Land Of Eternal Fire
