Tim Pool and Carter Banks’ latest track, “Hunger Inside,” brings fans an animated thrill ride featuring a chicken facing off against aliens determined to zombify the world. With darkly quirky Halloween-inspired music kicking off the video, viewers get an eerie prelude before diving into a no-holds-barred adventure that’s as entertaining as it is on point with current frustrations over media manipulation and control.
The animation, directed by Kent Leon Welling, sets the scene for an all-out alien invasion. The media’s chyron runs with ironic messaging like, “You’re being abducted—here’s why that’s a good thing,” mocking false narratives in today’s news. The lyrics match the tone perfectly, blending lyrics like, “Destroy the story from within,” and “Burn it down till there’s nothing left,” with intense beats, courtesy of Carter Banks and Pete Parada’s drums. Vocal harmonies by Ian Crossland and instrumentation from Banks build the song’s dark edge, mixing rock, rebellion, and just the right amount of chaos.
Fans of Timcast and those craving music with a message won’t want to miss it. “Hunger Inside” is available now to purchase on iTunes and Amazon.
