KATAGORY V: 'Risk And Sacrifice' Video Posted Online
April 17, 2006Utah-based progressive/power metallers KATAGORY V have uploaded the video for their song "Risk and Sacrifice", taken from their upcoming CD "The Rising Anger", at this location (Windows Media). The video footage was shot during the band's performance last year at the Growl at The Rally biker event in Evanston, Wyoming, courtesy of Triamid Productions.
Bassist Dustin Mitchell explains in detail the story behind the video: "A friend of ours, Troy Fillmore from Triamid Productions, who helped organize this show, had a pro video camera on site, and mentioned to us that they were shooting a few bands for a spot on a cable program here in the intermountain west. He wanted to know if they could shoot one of our songs and we agreed to let them. Ironically, it just so happened that the song they shot us playing live, was 'Risk and Sacrifice' from the new album. Troy then contacted us a few months back and wanted a copy of the song to synch up to the footage that was shot. We got a copy of it a few weeks ago and have been holding on to it until now.
"The video isn't really MTV quality by any stretch of the imagination (no disrespect to Troy and our brothers at Triamid who worked their asses off on it!),so don't expect any real fireworks and special effects!" Mitchell added. "However, it is actually put together and synched up rather well for a performance piece, and we were really impressed at how cool it turned out for it being shot with only one pro video camera, the glare of the sun on us, and the wind nearly knocking us off the stage. Did I mention this was outside?"
"The Rising Anger" is scheduled for release on May 23 via Nightmare Records.
