NICODEMUS Wrap Up Filming For 'Next In Nocturne' Video
March 13, 2006Portland-based progressive metallers NICODEMUS have wrapped up the filming of a long-form conceptual video for the track "Next In Nocturne" from their current release "Vanity Is A Virtue" (Sonic Age Records). The video was directed by Joni DeRouchie, a Northwest-based independent filmmaker who has worked on projects such as "Remote Control" and "Bigger Than Jesus". DeRouchie is a critically acclaimed director whose previous work has been selected for prestigious international film festivals. The concept for the video is gothic noir mixed with performance footage and features a large cast of actors, actresses, and extras including a cameo by published gothic novelist, Jemiah Jefferson, whose works include "Voice of the Blood", "Wounds", and "Fiend". The video is now in the editing stage and should see a release in late March. It will be available at the band's website, www.nicodemus.us.
As previously reported, NICODEMUS released their third album, titled "Vanity Is A Virtue" through the Greek label Sonic Age Records in June of 2005. The album decidedly owes more to the progressive sound than previous NICODEMUS releases, 2000's "Tales of the Lovelorn and Necromantic" (Dark Throne Music) and 2003's "The Supernatural Omnibus" (Dark Symphonies),which saw the band focusing on a goth/black metal-based sound with progressive elements.
