February 15, 2008, 16 years ago
Oakland, CA quartet SAVIOURS brand new video for their track 'Narcotic Sea', taken from the band's Kemado Records release Into Abaddon, sees its worldwide premiere today via MTV2’s Headbangers Blog. Head to this location to view. The video will make its world television premiere as part of the February 19th edition of the network’s long-running Headbangers Ball program.
'Narcotic Sea' was directed by Dante Della Maggiore (ZOMBIE ATTACK!) and features the band performing the song in a live setting as a consciousness-expanding quasi-storyline unfolds. Drummer Scott Batiste explains: "The video is basically about being in a self- induced haze during the Earth’s final days. We wanted to capture 'a little bit of Oakland' in our first video so, part of the video features us jamming out in a West Oakland warehouse. The rest is us on a quest for killer times in spite of all the decay and depression that surrounds us each day. We took a trip up Highway 1 (north of San Francisco) and hit up some killer rock formations and beaches and just partied, basically. Dante Della Maggiore, who directed the video, then took all of the footage and tripped it out as hard as possible. We're very stoked on how it turned out and we're ready for the world to get a glimpse of what Saviours is about.”
