Attila get abducted by aliens in video for new song—watch

October 18, 2016

Attila have unveiled a new song from their forthcoming album, Chaos—slated to drop Nov. 4 via SharpTone Records.

Watch the video for “Let's Get Abducted”—in which cartoon versions of Attila get abducted by aliens—below, and be sure to let us know what you think in the comments.

Attila's Chaos tour with Chelsea Grin, Emmure and Sylar begins today, Oct. 18, in Charlotte, North Carolina. Four songs have been released from Chaos so far: “Public Apology,” “Ignite,” “Bulletproof” and, now, “Let's Get Abducted.”

On the new song and video, frontman Chris “Fronzilla” Fronzak jokes to Billboard, “”We’ve always wanted to do a cartoon video, and this was the best song to do one for—because it's difficult to recruit real-life aliens for a video.”

But Fronzak definitely does believe in extraterresials. He continues, “We are just a speck of sand on the beach in the universe; you’d have to be foolish to think that we are the only life forms. They may not be slimy, green creatures, but aliens definitely exist.”

On the meaning of the song itself, Fronzak says, “It has multiple meanings. On the surface, it's about getting abducted by aliens, and they actually end up being really cool. I like to imagine that they would want to party with us and exchange knowledge.

“The deeper meaning of the song is about embracing the unknown. People are so quick to pass judgment about things they don’t know much about. Sometimes, if you give that thing—or person—a chance, it ends up being really amazing. Don’t judge the unknown! Give everyone and everything an opportunity. “
