Love the live footage in this, it's a very creative video and creepy in places, production is top notch on this..

Song hits really hard..

Very bass heavy..

Good effects on the video as well..

Killer song!!!


BOTTOM LINE:


Redefind absolutely brings the heat!!!

Mixing nu metal with a hip hop vibe,  they're right in line with Korn in my opinion.. but still true to themselves and what their creating. This band believes in what their doing and I believe in them.
