If there is one thing in the world I can understand...it is why 99% of the metal music videos is TOTALLY CRAP!??? So many of them is just....I don't get it! There is ALWAYS overloads of bad clichés and the camera is always moving to fast so it look stupid.... Anyway, I though I should try to find some good music videos from last year, 2011. Aaaaand I gave up after just having swedish SHINING´s video "Förtvivlan, Min Arvedel" And norwegian TAAKE´s video "Nordbundet"...that was it... But I feel there has to be at least three videos in the blog... So I ended up with a really short video made by Netherlands URFAUST. It is pretty nice and have the right feeling. You get the idea that it is all about the music and the long process of making it.
TAAKE "Nordbundet"
I like this becuse it is simple, but yet it says all it need to say. Taake is a fantastic live band and the surrounding around Bergen is also pretty stunning :) It is raw, a bit minimalistic and have the right atmosphere.
SHINING "Förtvivlan,Min Arvedel"
I must admit I don't think getting rid of the girl in the beginning would harm this video. But with that said, they show some things in the world that you know is no good! The bad sides, and the sad sides. And you get the feeling that it is not fake either. Pyroshow..well....I don't think it was necessary.. but pyro is fun :)
URFAUST "Vom Gesicht und Rätsel"
This band is definitely one of my favorite bands! This video is simple, but perfect for the sound!
And then, I just HAVE to once again criticize this next music video! IT IS HORRIBLE and my soul dies little by little every time I watch it! It is not from 2011 but still close..The next one is DIMMU BORGIR´s "Gateways" from 2010 or so. This is just the... it just scream NO NO NO!!!!!!! How can they use so many bad bad BAD clichés in 2010!!! Seriously! when ever I see a bathtub with blood (or milk?) and a hot girl, or hot girls with white dresses covered with blood (because they are a symbol of innocence) I want to kill the video! And their costumes...ooooh, I shall not start talking about those in detail! They look like sleazy demon pimps from Hollywood!
BAD BAD BAD VIDEO!!!!! Totally NO NO NO!!!
