Germany’s HEAVEN SHALL BURN will release their new album, VETO, on April 30th in North America via Century Media Records. In anticipation of this release, the band has now launched a new video for the album track “Hunters Will Be Hunted.” This video-clip was produced and directed by Film-M and Philipp Hirsch, who previously made the videos for HEAVEN SHALL BURN’s “Endzeit” and “Black Tears,” as well as the Bildersturm DVD and bonus DVD for Invictus.
“Hunters Will Be Hunted” can be streamed below.
Maik Weichert (guitars) comments about the video for “Hunters Will Be Hunted”:
“The topic of the video is very important to us. No matter if it’s hobby hunters in our regions, tourists going hunting in Africa or the ineffable whalers that Sea Shepherd are luckily setting more and more bounds to – Theodor Heuss’ (first President of the Federal Republic of Germany) words are universal: ‘Hunting is merely a cowardly circumlocution for the especially cowardly murder of fellow creatures who don’t have a chance. Hunting is a variant of human mental illness.’ The video is a bit unusual for a metal band, but we think it is a little different and standing out against the normal stereotypes of the scene. We are really proud that we could win Denise Rombouts over for the main female role. It was great fun working with such a talented and professional model. She really taught every one of us a lesion when it came down to being tough and keep on working during an ice cold winter day.”
