It seems to me that metal videos for underground artists like ourselves and Usurper are best served for the many local metal shows that run on public access stations on cable, and on the metal video shows overseas. One thing I think is also wise is when labels license out their music videos to labels such as Nuclear Blast for inclusion on their many compilation dvd series' such as "Monsters Of Metal" and "Beauty In Darkness"....I don't know about all the technicalities that come with getting on those comps but I can speak from experience that I have been turned onto many bands through watching those video comps over the years. In defense of Headbangers Ball, there's only two hours to feature videos, and there's literally hundreds of bands from all over the world competing to get exposure on there, and as previously stated, certain larger acts or more established record labels are obviously going to be chosen over the smaller acts such as ours, I understand how it works. It'd be pretty cool to see ourselves on that show someday, but honestly I'll be happy just knowing that people might see it on some cool local metal show or on a dvd someday or even just downloading it on the computer. Even if 25 people see it and are turned onto us from it, then it's done it's job and I'm happy.
