Converge - Eagles Turn to Vultures
thought this video was quasi decent
Yeah, that one is on the right track at least. Some strong framing, good color, and not too cutty. Not super-good but I like it...there's hope for hardcore vids!
This video is doing the same thing all the other hardcore videos are doing: depressed people either revolting - or dreaming about a revolution, shaky camera, defocus, 'intense hardcore performance' (covered obtusely), sadistic imagery (snake/severed hard/devilish nurse), satanic color pallete (red red red black), dirty production design, bad editing.
Thumbs down to hardcore if this represents the future of their vids. But I will say this, that final shot is amazing in a whacko kind of way: Man in loafers steps inbetween elevator and floor -- cut to black. What the fuck...
If only the rest of the video would be so freewheeling with its syntax.
ha ha...yeah...all the psuedo satanic/revolution/sadistic shit is sooo wack. I said it was on the right track...not there yet. But point well made.
