Swallow the Sun – Cathedral walls (2012)
”The drummer of the band, Kai Hahto, laughed when we asked him if he could hit the cymbals from under instead of the normal way. Afterward he recieved lots of positive comments for his special ways of playing the drums.”
The video for ”Cathedral walls” was shot during two days in Helsinki. The first one in a warm cozy studio, the second day in the infernal winds and somewhat hailstormy rains out at the cliffs of Suomenlinna. Even years after this shoot our knees are still shaking from the cold. By far the worst conditions we have ever shot anything in, and thanks to this we got some really nice frames.
