Beartooth released their new single “Bulls**t” on June 19th. This came after the band discovered that the artist had lied about using AI and canceled a planned lyric video hours before the release. Frontman Caleb Shomo and his brother Luke scrambled overnight to create a replacement video.
“The artist we commissioned for this project was adamant throughout the process that no AI was used in the creation of this lyric video,” Shomo wrote on social media. “Unfortunately, after many red flags and conversations this morning, we now know that is not the case.”
The group posted the teaser on the morning of June 18th. Fans quickly noticed how the AI worked. After seeing what happened, Shomo clarified his position. The band does not use AI or work with artists who lie.
Luke Shomo created the album art. He jumped in to create a new clip. “My brother Luke, who worked tirelessly on the album art, will be working hard tonight to create a lyric video that we’re all proud of. He’s a real doozy and we’re rooting for him,” Caleb Shomo added.
