Aug. 25 — U.D.O. dropped its latest album, Touchdown, Friday, and along with it, premiered the lyric video for the record’s new single, ‘Fight For The Right.’
The video features the song’s socio-politically charged lyrics over various images of warfare around the world as the driving metal arrangement at the song’s base plays over the visualization. At the video’s end, the band presents the note that the song is a protest of sorts against war, openly condemning “all forms of violence” while hoping “for peace in Ukraine and everywhere else on Earth.” The message concludes with the band stating we as a whole around the world must unite against war.
The anti-war message is anything but new to the rock world but is just as welcome here as in any other case from so many other acts.
‘Fight For The Right’ is the third single from Touchdown. The album has also produced the singles, ‘Forever Free‘ and the album’s title track..
