Call of the Wintermoon-videoen

[Jambimaster]

Skal vise fram og holde et foredrag om en musikkvideo i klassen, og jeg tenkte å ta Immortals Call Of The Wintermoon. Lurte om noen vet noe om hvordan denne videoen ble til m.m?

Hehe, vågalt valg! Digger Immortal, men må innrømme at den musikkvideoen har gitt meg mang en god latter. Håper dette er til hjelp:

 

The Call of the Wintermoon is a song by the black metal band Immortal from their album Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism. The song is notable for its music video, in which members of the band run amok in a forest and through the site of an ancient ruin, wearing corpse paint (and other articles such as a wizard costume), brandishing various weapons and, among other things, breathing fire.

 

It was, however, soon afterwards described by the band as a huge mistake as the TV station that they made the video for mocked them in their interview with the band after they aired the video, labeling them Satanic.[1] It was also in this interview that Kolgrim invented the term Holocaust Metal which sparked controversy. The title of the band's next album Pure Holocaust was in reference to this.

 

Sections of this video have been turned into animated gif files which are used widely in various circles on the internet when anything grim or frostbitten is mentioned, perhaps as a nod to the influence that the video has had on the public perception of black metal, and of the extreme metal subgenre as a whole.
