"Twilight of the Thundergod" Video Update.

I dont know what the song is about. But I would bet that there were several ideas for a video. Personally I would like to see a dark, heavy clip to a song like "Fate Of Norns" or "The Fall Through Ginnungagap", just pure epic

Pfft. I'd prefer battles over watching a guy carrying his dead son and burying him and shit.

Seems to be a cool video, the right choise of song also.

Have I missed something?
What song?
 
Sweet, the Jomsvikings are back. They were badass on the Köln show video. Gives to us sneak preiveiws! :)

The Jomsvikings are a really great bunch of guys. Watched a documentary about them last year (when they built the dragon ship) and was immediately fascinated. I was thinking about sending them an application for an internship, but then I saw they use real leather and stuff, even for training.
But they do the hell of a job anyway! And they can fight with swords, gers and bows!
 
It looks like the guys out there had a lot of fun. I don't really mind what kind of video AA makes, I enjoy watching all of them actually. Too bad I only found out about the video shooting today...who knows I might have gone there too. But my speciality is a banging head + belly dancing + flamenco footsteps...all on AA and other (death) metal songs.
 
Another "Viking battle + Band in front of fire" clip - I dont want to see this anymore.

Methinks it may be a bit cliché but that is what they do, and it is done well. However, to say one could mix things up think 'Ahti', or approach from another angle is probably warranted. If nothing else: try comedy. There are many ways one could implement some dark humour in even a battle video :loco:

For example: 'Prediction of Warfare', one could poke fun at the Irish :D

Brilliant! Racist humor is just what the band needs, because no one ever thought to make fun of the Irish before!
Maybe they could have something that implies the Irish drink a lot! Or maybe they could portray the Irish as poor, lazy, and dirty.
There's no end to the fun you could have at the expense of the Irish!

They already get crap for using runes and celebrating European heritage.

As they were vanquished by the Vikings, one could at least infer that the strategists were incompetent. I'm could visualize the Irish king in chambers with advisor, a map of his kingdom on a table, the three or four of them visibly dumbfounded. Thus the opportunity for humour presents itself. It is not the race or nation of the Irish, that was ever called into question, though one could infer their inferiority because Ireland spent most of its history as England's bitch.

Speaking of racism...those sheep won't shag themselves, your girlfriends miss you. :lol:

Well, now. You're ignorance of Irish history is on full display here. Say what you will, but the Irish have become one of the most successful and popular ethnic groups on the planet. The Irish Republic is now ranked in the top 5 nations in the world with regards to living standards, right up there with Norway and Iceland.



So tell me, what's your ethnic background?
 
It's the Russian abbreviation for 'USA'. This country has been headed in the direction of communism since the '60s, so it is appropriate.

Aye, true enough.



But with a surname like Drummond in yer background, i'd think ye'd be a bit more charitable to yer Gaelic cousins 'cross the Irish Sea. ;)
