ORDEN OGAN Release Video For ‘Masks’ Track
December 18, 2012, 12 years ago
German power metallers ORDEN OGAN have released the new music video for the track ‘Masks’.
‘Masks’ is based on motifs of Seeb Levermann‘s soundtrack for Andreas Marschall’s new horror film Masks.
Andreas Marschall commented: "After Seeb’s contribution of the amazing soundtrack for my horror movie Masks, it was just obvious to return the favor and do a clip for Orden Ogan. I think Seeb has exceeded himself with the ‘Masks’ song: he took the great main theme of the movie (in the film this is sung by CRYSTAL VIPER’s Marta Gabriel) and turned it into a melodic metal smasher that combines the horror atmosphere of Masks with the modern, anthemic sound of Orden Ogan.”
Seeb also commented: "Andreas Marschall’s cover artworks are an important part for us since the release of our debut Vale in 2008. Within the last few years we got to know each other better and better. Our appreciating for each other grew and so it became a logical thing that I, as a composer and fan of horror movies, would contribute the film score for Andreas’ Masks movie. Working with him was just awesome and a great experience. By working on the music for the film, the idea came up to create an Orden Ogan song with elements from it too. With Andreas as director of the video clip for ‘Masks’, filming it in the Apollo cinema in Arnsberg (Germany) was very exhausting but also incredibly productive and fun. Now seeing the result, I have to say that that I’m totally blown away. The clip turned out to be very artistic and maestro Marschall has outdone himself. Just killer!”

Masks was released on DVD and BluRay on October 24th.
According to the movie’s Facebook page, a synopsis is as follows: “Stella, an ambitious acting student, is accepted to the mysterious Mateusz Gdula school. The founder of the school committed suicide when his very special training method got forbidden because of the deaths of several of his students in the '70s. But when strange things start to happen in the abandoned wing of the school, Stella suspects that Gdula’s method is still practised. And she wants to participate at all costs …”
