Video analysis

This is a video by Kill Switch Engage, and although it is a metal video, it is nothing like any other videos which I have so far seen for this type of music. This is because the video comprises of plasticine models in place of the musicians themselves. I will not be using any of the characteristics show in this video, however I thought I should reference the fact that metal music videos are appearing to become more diverse as the music genre branches out.

  1. So it is unconventional? Interesting. I wonder what the fans through of it in comparison to their usual work.

  2. The fans of Killswitch Engage enjoyed the diversity that this video has brought to their music, however it is important to note that although they liked it, they would prefer for most of their videos to still feature in the same formant. It is also important to note that the reception to 'Save me' and the other songs from this album did not go down to well with Metalcore fans, this is because they believed that they have failed to improve on previous mistakes, and have tried to become something they are not.
