How do you want your burger? Served with trash metal? This is the bet that the fast food chain Carl’s Junior took recently while deciding to use Death Angel as the soundtrack for their new jalapeno turkey burger commercial. Sure you only get 30 seconds of the 10-minute-long song ‘The Ultra Violence’, but it is still surprising.
Death Angel is a Californian band and Carl’s Jr. a west coast chain, so it totally make sense, plus I have always thought that hard rock/metal and spicy fast food are going hand to hand: they look sloppy and mean, plus ‘hot’ in food is definitively the equivalent of 'loud' in music.
Anyway, it is a way for an underground band to get some unexpected exposure, and since Death Angel is currently working on a new album, which will be released in the spring of 2013, it's certainly not a bad move for them.
