Summoning - Land Of The Dead (Lyrics Video)

Finally, here is my new video dear friends. Well, it's been a while since I made one, but better ever than never. The video is for one of the best Summoning songs of all time imo. Honestly, I had the intent to make a video for this haunting song a few years ago, but every time I wanted to do something its length made me cringe. Also, I didn't want it to be an average thing in any way. After all, this is a grand opus type of song and this video had to be something special. Nonetheless, the will wasn't lacking, it was all about the right creative moment. So, I played for some time already with various ideas (some animated, some not), but in the end it all came to this; a simple, yet powerful depiction of "the land of the dead" in combination with fiery elements. The video itself symbolizes two things. The first thing is a constant flow of energy in nature, an endless life. Yeah, I think the life is endless and death is not the end - it is a transformation of energy; a rebirth in different form. So, the second thing is fire, which represents that rebirth in a similar fashion like Phoenix. But, enough with philosophy, I'm sure many of you won't read this anyway :) The video is what matters and I hope you'll like it. So, watch, share, enjoy, comment, let the powerful sound of Summoning be heard! Cheers!
In the end, I just want to once again express my gratitude to all these good people who made this wonderful shots because without their brilliance this video couldn't be possible.

PS: This is not the animated video I've been working on for the past few years, that one is still in the making...
