New Bedford, Massachusetts’ hardcore punk trailblazers A WILHELM SCREAM have just dropped yet another new video from their acclaimed sixth LP, Cheap Heat – out now on Creator-Destructor Records – with “Fell Off,” directed/edited by Arlo Dean Cook.
The band writes, “We’re super stoked to unleash our brand new video for ‘Fell Off,’ filmed at our sold-out show in Melbourne, Australia last month at Stay Gold. Australia has welcomed us with open arms for years now and has always shown us a lot of love, so we thought it was only fitting to film a live video in one of the rowdiest places we could play! Cheers to everyone who came out to the show, for the stage dives and for your energy, we appreciate you and hope everyone enjoys the video! A little taste of the AWS live show experience…”
A WILHELM SCREAM’s “Fell Off” video is playing HERE, and if you missed them, watch the videos for “Midnight Ghost,” “Let It Ride,” and “I Got Tunnel Vision” HERE.
Cheap Heat is out now on three 12” vinyl variants, CD, and cassette at the Creator-Destructor Records webshop HERE and Bandcamp HERE, and streaming everywhere.
Following tours of the West Coast US, Australia, and Japan supporting the album, A WILHELM SCREAM continues booking dates around the globe through the rest of the year.

A WILHELM SCREAM arrives swinging harder than ever with ten tracks of their adrenaline-fueled melodic hardcore/punk rock on Cheap Heat. Combining the dark nihilistic mood of the band’s classic 2005 album Ruiner with the technicality, ferocity, and sharp precision of 2007’s monumental Career Suicide, the Cheap Heat LP is a unique hybrid of the darker, more aggressive elements of the band’s sound.
Cheap Heat was produced and mixed by A WILHELM SCREAM’s own guitarist/vocalist Trevor Reilly at their hometown Anchor End Studio, with mastering handled by his father Joe Reilly at Black & Blue Mastering. The new album also marks the first for the band’s newest member, Ben Murray (Light This City, Heartsounds, Darkness Everywhere) on second guitar, who joins vocalist Nuno Pereira, vocalist/guitarist Trevor Reilly, drummer Nicholas Angelini, and bassist Brian Robinson. Group vocals are delivered by Jon Teves, Sean O’Brien, and the band.
