A BREACH OF SILENCE has released a making of video clip for their soon to-be released ‘Night Rider’ music video. The ambitious music video pays homage to the 1966 classic western The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly, and the popular western-themed videogame Red Dead Redemption – two of the band’s favorite pastimes. It was directed by Steven Caldwell of Caldwell Entertainment, features gun slinging bandits, a cast of more than sixty actors, and an undead outlaw known as The Night Rider.

“For the ‘Night Rider’ video, we wanted to do a really cool story line about a character we created called The Night Rider” states guitarist Mat Cosgrove. “He’s an undead cowboy whose mission is to take anyone bad or evil back to the deep dark fiery pit where he came from. We as a band use this character as a medium to tell our stories, experiences, and learning’s of life. The true meaning of the song is that, you can make mistakes, and fail at things, but it’s the mistakes and failings that make you who you are. The Night Rider is a vigilante of sorts, he is initially arrested by the law, but when some local bad guys shoot up the town and gun down the sheriff and his deputies, he’s released from prison to take care of them and uphold the law.”
“Every so often as a filmmaker you get an opportunity to work with an amazing team and create something really special” says director Steven Caldwell. “… and I knew this was one of those rare opportunities straight away. The band wanted something very ambitious; a western movie/videogame style with a large number of extras (all in costume), along with an old-looking town and great effects. What I did was guide the ship and give the video that epic feel. With about 60 people all in period costume, real guns (many of them), an incredible 1st Assistant Director in Darwin Brooks (The Great Gatsby, Australia, Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time), and beautiful looking shots thanks to Dave Wayland (Director of Photography), I think we achieved that!”

A Breach Of Silence released their debut full-length album entitled Dead Or Alive, on October 1st through Eclipse Records (MUSHROOMHEAD, BOBAFLEX, BLOWSIGHT). The album was produced by Fredrik Nordstrom and Henrik Udd (BRING ME THE HORIZON, OPETH, IN FLAMES, ARCH ENEMY).
