Not a clip, but a new video!

[Makten]

Just thought that i'd post a new video, with my band Giantess...
Would be nice with some comments! I know it is VERY dark, but that's part of the idea.

I play the bass by the way.

The file is 27,6 megs, but the server is pretty fast.

Edit: If you like it, there's a bunch of more songs to download from the site, and don't forget the guestbook.

Very very cool.

I liked everything about it. You guys did a lot of work.

Reminds me of some of the stuff the British bands were coming out with years ago.

I'll have to check out your other material.

Thank you Ihallam!

Maybe I'd tell you a little about the recording?

The song was recorded mostly live in our rehearsal place, with drums, bass and one guitar as a simple stereo recording with two microphones (ADK A51S + Neumann U87) in X/Y constellation in the middle of the room. That's why the sound is a bit thin.
Then some more guitars, lyrics and organ was added with a portastudio (Korg D8?).
Finally we imported it to Cubasis (? Don't remember), and did some final mastering.
So this is really a non proffessional recording, with very low budget.

The video is mostly the work of the guitarist himself. We recorded the band sequences in the rehearsal place with a little DV-cam, and a flashlight.
The the guitarist has done all the clay animation and everything else at his place. Don't know much about that really...
