Veteran Canadian death metal outfit KATAKLYSM will shoot a video for “Elevate” in Belgrade, Serbia with acclaimed director Ivan Colic from iCode Productions (EX DEO, SOILWORK, MOONSPELL, ALESTORM, KAMELOT).
Ivan Colic previously worked with KATAKLYSM frontman Maurizio Iacono on KATAKLYSM’s “Push The Venom” video and EX DEO’s “Romulus” and “Final War (Battle Of Actium)” clips.
Filming will commence in August for “a very ambitious and sick” video for the song “Elevate” from KATAKLYSM’s forthcoming concept album, Waiting For The End To Come. According to the band, the plan is to bring the viewers into a visual masterpiece of chaos, a chaos based around the ideals of death, the purpose of life, the human factor, and the semi-coma state that most people in this world exist in.
Says Iacono: “In a nutshell, we believe we wrote the most intense, intricate storyline for a video clip ever made in death metal and our genre. Big statement? Well, we’ve got big ideas and we need to put it to life with crazy visuals. We hired the man who has the balls and the artistic capacity to execute this task plus one of the best special FX teams in Europe to back him up. It’s time to up the game. We’re back and we’re swinging hard.”
KATAKLYSM’s Waiting For The End To Come will be released worldwide this October.
