OT-ish: Best music video ever (featuring an SR4 and me for a second)

[phatduckk]

So my friend Ryan Divine, singer/songwriter of the band Maldroid, is an awesome director/video maker dude. He won youtube's "best music video" contest last year with [nomedia="http://youtube.com/watch?v=FHGvh3i35Uk"]YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.[/nomedia] but he just top himself with, IMHO, the best rock video ever made.

the video's for a song called "Right" by our friends' band, Royalty

the video features a blood soaked SR4 and me (im somewhere near the end w/ :55 remaining). anywho... i think this the video is the best thing ive ever seen and thought id share.

you can check it out here
(disclaimer: video's got a kill bill kinda vibe to it - watch the awesomeness at your own risk)

woot
Arin

I dug it. The Video was over the top in a Kill Bill sorta way. The song was pretty cool also. Saw you rock'n out in there Arin.

 

[maddog]

were they eventually arrested?

I managed to stomach all the mayhem to see our poor Phatty get shoved out of the picture. I say we team up and fight back!

dig the tunes. video is a little over the top for me.

 

[phatduckk]

i was actually supposed to rush the stage and die but sadly we ran out of time.

that last bit was filmed in 3rd eye blind's old practice space.

I say, Muffin, that was simply delightful! Another spot of tea?

Good work on the song and man, you know you're gonna get press with that video!

One problem: Who's going to want to play with you next gig? I hope they have insurance!

 

[Psycho Ward]

Wow! The Red Cross should use this video for their blood drive!


Are you still going to talk to us now that you're a big star?


Cool stuff Phatty, I liked it! I won't sleep good, but I liked it!

ahaha Daaaaayumm "Right" is an awesome music video! "He Said, She Said" kinda reminded me of "Take on Me" (Aha) with the comic thing. Great stuff!

Is that you in the white shirt?

The SR shot was pretty cool too:

you're good. ryan said that a part of his marketting plan for that video was to find people that liked the Aha video and send em a message to check it out

Is that you in the white shirt?

yup... its a super old shirt cuz i was supposed to be killed but we never got to it

The SR shot was pretty cool too:

you shoulda seen that bass in person. it didnt come out too obviously on video but the SR was covered in corn syrup. if you touched it it would just stick to you. i wonder how he cleaned it up

for a more feel-good, happy video that ryan did you can check out... this one's got over 1,300,000 views: [nomedia="http://youtube.com/watch?v=YxZJYbVd1hE"]YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.[/nomedia]
