Goth rockers Ashestoangels have unveiled a new video, the politically themed 'Not In My Name'. The video is based around the metaphor of 'Blood on your hands, you can never clean' and depicts a young couple locked in battle, with tragic results.

Vocalist Crilly explains: "Not in my name. It's a powerful statement. I think it's important to say this is not an omission of guilt. It is a rejection of all the horrible things that are done by those we trusted to protect us, on a global scale, a national scale and in our day to day life.

When taking away tents and blankets is seen as a solution to homelessness you know something is wrong. When we refuse to support the same people we have displaced you know something is wrong. I feel like by not speaking out then I am being complicit through inaction. It may just be a punk rock song, but words have power and if I can use that to make even the smallest difference, then I have too. I won't be complicit through inaction.

Things may carry on regardless, but not in my name."

You can pre-order 'How To Bleed' on the Ashestoangels Big Cartel which includes a lot of exclusive packages including t shirts, handwritten lyrics, singing lessons with Crilly, necklaces and more. The album is also available to pre-order on iTunes and comes with an instant download of Horror Cult.
