The cutting-edge animated video is available now
Billy Morrison, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor, and Steve Vai have joined forces on “Incite The Watch,” the new single and cutting-edge animated video from Morrison’s recently released solo album The Morrison Project via TLG/Zoid/Virgin Music Group.
The striking clip depicts “flying superhero rockstars fighting against the corporate hordes and freeing music, creativity, and the enslaved masses!!” explains Morrison. The video was directed by Brett Boggs, whose credits include numerous Disney movies.
“Incite The Watch” is an intense, ominous rock track fueled by Taylor’s gripping vocals and Vai‘s massive, virtuosic guitar solo. It was written by Morrison, Erik Eldenius, Jeordie White, and Taylor. The release of the single follows Morrison’s seismic No. 1 active rock song and smash video “Crack Cocaine” featuring Ozzy Osbourne and Steve Stevens and co-written by the three artists.
The “Incite The Watch” video was produced utilizing a revolutionary combination of artist- created character animation with a state-of-the-art application called CineTech to create AI-generated backgrounds and visual effects. This concept led to the advent of distinct, art-directed imagery on a tighter deadline. By utilizing human creativity with concept driven CineTech imagery, the video has a unique look that matches the brilliance of the music and allows the listener to visually join the story.
The Morrison Project was released this past April, marking Morrison’s third solo album and first since 2015. The British guitarist, singer, and songwriter—primarily known as Billy Idol’s rhythm guitar player for the past 15 years alongside lead guitarist Steve Stevens—has assembled an electrifying 12 songs with guest performances by Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Idol, Corey Taylor, DMC, Al Jourgensen, Steve Vai, Steve Stevens, Linda Perry, Tommy Clufetos, John5, and more. The album was produced by Morrison, mixed by Barry Pointer, and mastered by Dave Donnelly. All the songs on the album—recorded in Los Angeles at various studios—were written by Morrison in collaboration with his guests.
