Unearth shoots new video[views:14395][posts:1]______________________________________ [Jun 5,2006 10:48pm - the_reverend ""] UNEARTH Will Shoot Their First Video From Their August 6th Release “III In The Eyes Of Fire” For New Track titled “Giles” ! On June 5th, UNEARTH team up with Darren Doane (Def Tones, Every Time I Die, As I Lay Dying, A Life Once Lost and Poison The Well) to create their first video for "Giles" from their upcoming Metal Blade Records release “III: In The Eyes Of Fire” (8/6/06). The footage is to be shot at a massive soundstage in Burbank, California to capture the bands raw, pure metal in this performance driven video clip. Director Darren Doane on UNEARTH and the new “Giles video,” “Music videos are a tricky thing. To show the band -or - to show a movie? Or both? In my opinion, a video should do one thing and be an extension of who the band is. As much as I love telling stories, I love bands more.” “Sometimes I get a song so brutal that I cant even imagine a storyline. This is what happened when I heard this new Unearth song. Music evokes imagery. How to embrace UNEARTH and add that external extension to the power of the song became the question.” “To make the biggest performance video we can; was going to be about hundreds and thousands of amps of light. One of my favorite lighting coordinators/Gaffers is a man named Joel Unagnst. He's been involved in some of the biggest and best projects ever. >From No Doubt, to Metallica, Van Halen, Motley Crue...So, I begged him to be apart of this video and help me create a world of light, darkness, shadows, lightning, with exploding surges of lights. He agreed and we are off. In the end it will not be about the lights. The lights and lack of light has one job, and that’s to embrace the song and power of the band. If we forget that, we lose. Videos are about the band. This band kicks ass. This video must kick ass.” Don’t miss UNEARTH, they are on Ozzfest all summer long! http://www.unearth.tv |

That would be so spooooooky. |
