Cordero pulls out all the stops for \u201cTechno Girl,\u201d saturating the screen with neon colors and retro graphics to bring the song\u2019s central character to life, an ass-kicking, video game playing, motorcycle riding, gun toting renegade who has no problem holding her own in Cordero\u2019s quasi-futuristic hyper-violent world. The video showcases the cinematic quality of PRIEST\u2019s sound, which has already been tapped by major Hollywood producers for inclusion in the upcoming Mel Gibson movie \u201cHot Seat.\u201d<br><br>As the band themselves declare, \u201cThis is a hi-octane bop with instant hooks that scores the futuristic mindscape of PRIEST. Vicente masterfully realizes that vision and we only wish we made the song longer so we could see more of it. Strap your belt on properly and enjoy \u2018Techno Girl\u2019!\u201d<br><br><strong>Watch the video:<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/8TGn1Vim_58\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/8TGn1Vim_58<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Also be sure to catch PRIEST performing live on their European tour, EUROTOUR 2022 with special guests SJ\u00d6BLOM &amp;
