"No dogs were harmed in the making of this video (but some humans might have been)."
Dog Eat Dog is een typisch, simpel Tomahawk dingetje wat de muziek betreft, gaat echter gepaard met een brutale doch hilarische video. Veel meer valt hierover niet te zeggen, al kan je nog wat info oppikken hieronder.
Tonic Immobility verschijnt op 26 maart 2021 via Ipecac Recordings.

Tomahawk, who recently announced their first full-length album in eight years, Tonic Immobility, have shared a second track from the twelve-song album, debuting the video for “Dog Eat Dog”.
"It's a statement about competition, oppression, and unity--served up with a healthy dose of slapstick humor,” said Duane Denison (The Jesus Lizard/Unsemble) of the Eric Livingston directed clip. Mike Patton (Mr. Bungle/Fantômas) added: "Dogs patiently wait, obediently, for humans to snuff each other out…so they can take over the world. Dogs rule!!!!”
The band, rounded out by Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle/Fantômas) and John Stanier (Helmet/Battles), set tongues wagging with the January album announcement and concurrent release of the “Business Casual” single .
Brooklyn Vegan said, “it’s the kind of loud, dark, eccentric rock song that Tomahawk have always done so well” while Revolver called the track “slithery and venomous.”
Pre-orders are available now, with the album available in the following formats: digital, CD digipak, and 180 gram LP in textured gatefold packaging. Vinyl variants include standard black, coke bottle clear (indie retail exclusive – 5000 available), opaque metallic silver (Ipecac webstore exclusive – 2000 available), and crystal clear (Newbury Comics exclusive – 1000 available).
Video Credits Directed by Eric Livingston.
