Norwegian black n’ roll band Kvelertak has released a video for their song “Morild,” directed by Fredrik S. Hana. This song is from the band’s latest album, Endling, which was released on September 8 via Rise Records.
Commenting on the video, guitarist Vidar Landa said:
“You can watch “Morild” as one continuous explosive journey of visual eye candy, as not one single frame is repeated, bathed in Fredrik‘s beautiful, dark, and violent imagery inspired by Kvelertak‘s music. Or look for and interpret the lyrical themes surrounding our newest album Endling: man vs. nature, local folklore, greed, and the inevitable death of everything we know.”
Fredrik S. Hana added :
“”Morild” marks my fourth music video for Kvelertak, starting all the way back with “Mjød” in 2010, followed by “Månelyst” in 2013, and “1985” in 2016. I truly cherish this collaboration and the creative space they offer.
It inspires me to aim high and push boundaries. With this “Morild”, “which exists somewhere between a music video and a short film, I wanted to give it my all. We spent over six months shooting the thing, painstakingly making everything by hand, from stop-motion animation to miniature work and practical effects. I hope the Kvelertak fans get a kick out of it and can appreciate the love (and blood and tears) we put into it.”
The band will be touring in Europe this autumn.They will be performing at the Trix in Antwerp on November 1st. Tickets for this show are already available on the venue’s website.
