< It's
simply not cricket!
Work
has finished on the video to 'We Rode The Storm' by The Scaramanga Six.
This latest televisual bonanza was once again directed by the band and
Wrath's very own Paul Morricone. The promo was produced at Mezzo Studios,
Leeds where Paul teamed up with the creative duo of Fabian Wagner and
Adam Steel as crew.
The basic idea
to the video is one of perpetual movement where the band advance forward
to a constantly backtracking camera through a multitude of different locations
in a 'we'd like to be mafia gangsters' style. The Six, not averse to acting
like they own the place, took to the task with great enthusiasm. During
the shoot, the band traipsed through a number of unlikely scenarios such
as disused mill buildings, expansive office suites, squash courts and
even a bowling green - picking up handy playing tips from the local team
at Huddersfield's Lockwood Park club.
"It is
always a bit tricky being both behind and in front of the camera"
said Paul. "A bit like being a sock - it goes around the outside
of your foot, yet at the same time is inside your shoe therefore being
in two places at once."
The video will
hopefully find it's way onto television as the band's last promo for 'The
Poison Pen' did, by getting a few spot plays on MTV2. If you see any Wrath
band on television, please remember to badger the TV station senseless
with requests to show it again. You never know - they might bow to the
ensuing pressure and oblige!
We are working
on putting this and other Wrath promos on the site somewhere so have patience.
In the mean time, you can see a few stills from the shooting sessions
to get an idea of the chaos and insanity of the proceedings if you
go to the images section of the features page.
