FOTOCRIME Unleash Dystopian Fury On "Unthinkable" Alongside JAY WEINBERG & BARNEY GREENWAY

5 hours ago 2



Louisville dark punk stalwarts Fotocrime are back with a more furious and aggressive tone on their forthcoming LP, Security, and the second single, "Unthinkable," perfectly captures the record's raw energy. The track examines modern geopolitical panic and the specter of global conflict, inching toward total annihilation.

The song opens with a smashing drum performance by Jay Weinberg (Suicidal Tendencies, ex-Slipknot), whose double-time hi-hats and tribal rhythms provide an indestructible backbone. Layered atop this is a Cold War–era synth stab and the throat of a bona fide metal legend: Barney Greenway of Napalm Death.

Fotocrime mastermind Ryan Patterson elaborated on the collaboration: "'Unthinkable' is a dystopian anthem about the horrors facing the world. On this track we are honored to be joined by our friends Jay Weinberg and Barney Greenway, who both lend their immense talents.

"Jay is one of the world's foremost heavy music drummers, and the crushing groove he brought perfectly hammers alongside our pummeling drum machine, elevating our mechanical rhythms. Legendary Napalm Death singer Barney Greenway joins on co-lead vocals through the last half of the track; hearing his voice gives me chills. Barney is an inspiration on many levels, and it's such an honor to have him on this song."
