Eric 13 riding down the "Devil’s Highway"

Eric 13, guitarist of Combichrist, vocalist in Sex Slave is, aside from those projects, also a solo artists, who currently uses the time between a big Combichrist European Tour and some festival dates with that band to do a little acoustic solo tour through Europe.

A few days ago he released a new song called ‘Devil’s Highway’, to be followed by a video today. Check it out here:

Eric13 comments about the video:

After writing about 50 rock and outlaw country songs in the last few years, I was yearning for new inspiration. I had experienced so much change in my life, and for better or worse, I looked in the mirror to face things about myself I hadn’t previously been willing to face. My new songs finally address those demons and intensely personal situations and I’ve never felt stronger or more confident with my song writing. “DEVIL’S HIGHWAY” marks the beginning of a new era in my music, and this video a desire to develop the stories even more.

Making this video was an absolute blast. I love to create new characters, dive into fantasy worlds and craft elaborate back stories. So once I found “THE SPOT”, where I did the majority of the filming, (the dilapidated house and ‘path to nowhere’) the story and scenes revealed themselves. With every shot I was uncovering this swampy underworld where I could simultaneously bury my secrets and dig up the truth.”

You can get the song on iTunes, but Eric also has some physical copies out on the road. They’re limited though, so better be quick.
