June 17, 2016, 8 years ago
Bulgarian heavy metal band Odd Crew have released their long-awaited "Shapes In Grey" video from the latest album Mark These Words (2015).It is the fourth video for the album.
"The experience of enacting this crossover between poetry, music and theatre was very exciting. The song itself is painfully straightforward – very guitar-driven and luscious in emotions and questions, while the mysticism of the immersed monastery complements the overall feeling of being nothing but small,’ said Leonid Yovchev, leading actor in "Shapes In Grey".
The video was shot at Jrebchevo reservoir and "is an emotional symbiosis between sound, text and image. The song, the idea of the video, the acting and the locations – all of them got entwined in a thrilling result which makes us think who we really are," added video directorOgnyan Kostovski.
The latest album Mark These Words was recorded by the Swedish producer Daniel Bersgtrandt (Meshuggah, In Flames, Behemoth, Dimmu Borgir) and the project was financed by Odd Crew fans in a crowdfunding campaign where more than $16 thousand were raised, which made it possible for Mark These Words and some new videos to be released.
