Hardcore legends Negative Approach began a tour on Long Island this past Friday (7/14), and they’ll be on the road for about another month. The current leg is with Bloodclot (whose lineup includes John Joseph of Cro-Mags, Todd Youth of Warzone/Murphy’s Law, Nick Oliveri of Kyuss/QOTSA, and Joey Castillo of QOTSA) and the next leg is with Eyehategod.

The run with Bloodclot hits Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus on Friday (7/21) with Boston’s Ascend/Descend (members of American Nightmare, Lunglust and Math the Band) and NYC’s Crushed (tickets).

Crushed released the Deep User EP earlier this week, and they’ve since made a video for its song “Fried.” They made the video from live footage shot at nowhere other than Saint Vitus, where they play on Friday. The video’s got captions for the lyrics, which are in Spanish, and that’s helpful no matter what language you speak given the band’s indiscernible screams. The video premieres below.

In related news, Eyehategod are touring with Cro-Mags after the run with Negative Approach, including Saint Vitus on 8/27 (tickets).

In more related news, Negative Approach frontman John Brannon’s band Easy Action are opening for Dinosaur Jr in Brooklyn in October (tickets).
