Heavy As Texas Release 'King Of Fools' Video

05-19-2019

Exhorder offshoot Heavy As Texas have released a brand new music video for their song "King of Fools". The track comes from their recently release self-titled debut album.

The new promo clip was directed by Mark Borchardt and frontman Kyle Thomas had this to say about the song, "Although I always feel lyrical meaning is subjective, we all fear being taken advantage of and made to look like a fool.

"This song captures the insecurity of what it's like to be greatly valued or admired in public, but thieves and detractors have their way behind the scenes. Sometimes only his queen can make the king feel safe."

Borchardt said the following of the video, "In 'King of Fools', we find the reigning despot accompanied by mirth and sensuality even though his march finds him in the complete wreckage of his metaphorical kingdom. His once powerful domain is now a crumbling shadow, his rule now over no one but his diminished acolytes. Truly, he is a King of Fools as he fades away from us to face the inevitable nothingness of his being." Watch the video here
