MELECHESH Release 'Grand Gathas Of Baal Sin' Video
March 25, 2011, 13 years ago
Mesopotamian thrashing black metal pioneers MELECHESH have posted their brand new video clip, 'Grand Gathas Of Baal Sin', taken from their latest masterpiece, The Epigenesis. Check it out below
The band previously posted posted two "making of" segments on the 'Grand Gathas Of Baal Sin' video. Check out both available clips below:
In early December, the band headed for Istanbul, Turkey to shoot the music video with Canadian director Rouzbeh Heydari.
Commented mainman Ashmedi: “We decided to film in Istanbul in order to capitalize on the suitable and real scenery and avoid a greenscreen, the location is surreal. Choosing to film in Istanbul also keeps us in line with The Epigenesis photo shoot and recording which were both done here. Rouzbeh, the director, flew in from Canada today and the whole band will arrive tonight. Friday we will do some pre production, Saturday and Sunday we will be shooting in two different locations. We chose ‘Grand Gathas Of Baal Sin’ because it has all of the desired elements; speed, thrashiness, aggression, mysticism and middle eastern ritualistic beats and parts.”
