And now for something lighter. Russian Metal Band, ANJ, completely broke my brain with this visual feast…atrocity? I dunno. You decide.
The video’s director, Tom Stern, explains himself:
When I saw the lyrics it seemed to be an earnest tribute to Mikael Gorbachov (that’s how the Russians spell it), so I was a bit confounded about what the video concept should be, but then I had a brainstorm to take it way over the top and I think it was just the thing. Suffice to say it’s half Russian History allegory as told through an old zombie movie made in the Soviet Union, and half animated Soviet Propaganda posters.
