Press quote:

[FONT=&quot]DARK TRANQUILLITY are proud to present the 5th promo video for their latest album “We Are The Void” that came out in early 2010.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
The video was filmed by the band themselves on the road, with guitarist Niklas Sundin ([/FONT][FONT=&quot]www.cabinfevermedia.com[/FONT][FONT=&quot] / [/FONT][FONT=&quot]www.adurolabs.se[/FONT][FONT=&quot]) taking care of the editing/post production duties. Additional live footage was provided by Anders Björler (The Haunted, At The Gates) and Nikolas Pegler. Check it out here: [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Niklas Sundin comments the video: "I wanted to create a live video that would capture the energy of our show both from the audience's perspective as well as from the stage. To accomplish this, we headed out on our recent Europe/Russia tours equipped with a GoPro HD camera, which was mounted on various objects (guitar necks, vocal microphone, member's bodies etc.) on most of the shows. Despite probably looking pretty weird for those in the crowd that noticed the little device, we arrived home with a lot of interesting footage, and after a lot of editing we're happy to present the final result: A clip for "In my absence", filled with an energy and closeness out of the ordinary. Enjoy!"[/FONT]

Damn you beat me to it! I love this video, it has very good footage and, most important of all (IMO), lots of details to look at.

And really, some are singularly funny ones; I basically burst out laughing when I saw the duppla Martin H. and Mikael caressing his now-new shaved head.
 
The overall aesthetic also went very well with the music.

And was somebody actually wearing a mask like from Zero Distance? Brilliant.. I think I'll dress like a dude and wear said mask at all future concerts ^_^
 
I think the mask was probably put into the music video digitally by Niklas.
We should try to convince the Anonymous movement to use these masks though. Where and when can we buy them, Niklas?
 
Just saw this at 2:43-2:44:


:danceboy:

edit: And yes, this does justify a double-post.
