Norilsk - La Voie Des Morts [Music Video] (Doom Death Metal)

Norilsk - La Voie Des Morts (Official Music Video) From the album: Le passage des glaciers Order CD: #!/Norilsk-Le-passage-des-glaciers/p/95858385/category=6794198 Digital: Filmed and co-directed by Erik Labossiere / Wikked Twist Films, and Nick Richer / HVY One Productions. The Wikked Twist Films segment of “La voie des morts“ features Amberyl Watson as the protagonist and Sarah Cameron as the “Ribbon-trap woman.“ Shooting was assisted by Kristin Wagner and filmed on a cold day in Qu’Appelle, Saskatchewan. The HVY One Productions segment features Nic Miquelon and Nick Richer, and filmed in the perpetual winter setting of various locations in the Gatineau Park, Quebec. La voie des morts (The Way of the Dead) is a winter dirge, a black premonition accompanying the dead season. Without a doubt the fastest track on the album, it starts as a cold funeral march, before turning into a blackened procession. The video was co-directed by Wikked Twist Films, located nearby Regina, and 2700 km-away HVY One Productions, of Ottawa’s area. Erik Labossière of Wikked Twist Films brought his universe of the macabre and the morose to develop a short story revolving around a few characters. Erik comments: “Shooting only a portion of a video and working with footage shot across the country was a unique situation and combining two narratives to create one full story was even moreso. Norilsk is very good at both defining their concept and allowing room for creativity on my part, and I really enjoyed expanding the universe we created in ’La noirceur intérieure’ with some references and correlations to that video. I feel that a music video is an opportunity to give a visual palate to an auditory experience, and creating a powerful or intriguing narrative to accent the sound is a best of both worlds scenario. I love shooting this type of concept. A silent film narrated by only the music and message of the artist is such a rewarding and expansive collaboration.” Nick Richer of Norilsk and HVY One adds: “We’ve known Erik for a few years now, as we toured with his bands Nachtterror and Altars of Grief, and he directed our previous video ’La noirceur intérieure.’ Co-shooting a video is quite a nice feel when you have no idea what the other will come out with. I had high expectations from Erik after seeing his work, and he completely exceeded them. Working with him was a pleasant experience and is looking great for the future.” Released: April 18, 2018
