THE DEFILED – reveal `Unspoken´ video clip and »Daggers« track list
Today, London-based modern metal mob THE DEFILED reveal the first video from their forthcoming second studio album and Nuclear Blast Entertainment debut »Daggers«, showcasing their most gruesome visual work to date.
The `Unspoken’ video clip sees front man Stitch D and keyboardist The AvD held captive by their band mates before descending into a torturous nightmare. The `Unspoken´ single will be released on June 30, 2013.
The video was directed by Robin Fuller (FEED THE RHINO, HAWK EYES, DAATH) and produced by award winning producer Craig Tuohy. Craig’s own production company, Ascension Productions, won a golden trailer award for the work on “The Kings Speech” and has also worked with the likes of Jean-Claude Van Damme.
“Making our first official video for »Daggers« was the most fun we have had filming. Stitch and I tried our hand at acting and as we decided on the day, we nailed it! Not really, we are terrible actors…”, jokes The AvD.
He continues: “We also got to work with our old pal Robin Fuller who was actually the very man that directed our first ever video ‘The Resurrectionists’. I think this video sums up what ‘Unspoken’ is all about. We wanted a very specific scene in there where the two protagonists (The AvD and Stitch D) are smiling at each other and shaking hands with knives behind their backs. This very scene was the inspiration for the actual cover of »Daggers« as this theme runs throughout the whole album.”
