Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Peccatorum on 17 February 2005, 10:41:17
Hi Hermank
I read on the web site of Hellion Records (the brazilian distributor of Ashes) about a video for the song "Equilibrium"...
There says it's already done, and will be release as soon as possible.

Is there anything in this information right?

Thanks for your attention

The video was recorded in early January, yes. It was despatched to Europe, USA and Latin America in the beginning of February - but I don't know when it will be available. I have not heard anything about a release (for sale) - for the moment, it's only for TV.

Hi all,

Haven't seen it anywhere yet myself. For Norwegian channels - we're hoping on next week. As for MTV ... who knows.

We'll post it on the web as soon as we get clearance to do so, don't worry.

I'm really exited to see how the video turned out. I hope there wasn't too much CG used.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Deadlocked on 20 February 2005, 23:10:18
CG?

You mean computer animations like in WTs Ice Queen (the new version)?
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: MaxPayne on 21 February 2005, 00:19:04
Yes...CG = computer graphics

It looks really cool when you see it the first time but it get's boring pretty fast. Doing quality CG work on a video is expensive, like Korn's Did My Time, the clip featuring Angelina Jolie. I thought it was done neatly. Low budget CG would be WT's videos for Mother Earth.

Yeah, that's true!! Like the Mother Earth video... what are those "red-shining-eyes" after all?!!! Very funny...
But, people... a several number of Tristania fans here in Brazil dislike teh option of the band about make a video of Equilibrium... they say this music is not the one with the main caracterist of Tristania on Ashes... I do nor agree with that. I love Equilibrium and think it's a perfect song for a video.
What do you think about that?
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Deadlocked on 22 February 2005, 07:53:40
Hmm... it's not represantative for the whole album, but the choice is ok.. imho...
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Tjeerd on 22 February 2005, 10:45:11
It's the most accessible song of Ashes. (OK, maybe Cure is even more accessible, but it's the weakest song on the album IMO.)
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: MaxPayne on 22 February 2005, 10:54:30
For me it's alright as long as it helps the band. As far as we know there isn't even a single planned to accompany the video like it's usually the case.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Deadlocked on 22 February 2005, 11:01:06

Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Darth-Angina on 22 February 2005, 11:36:18
Equlibrium is one of my faves from the album and I think it's good for a representative siong/video.... Actually yea, if I'd be choosing it, I'd choose Equlibrium, second choice would be Shadowman.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Peccatorum on 22 February 2005, 17:37:11
Hey Tjeerd

Which is the weakest song in your opinion? Cure or Equilibirum? I do not understand that part...
Yeah, I think Equilibrium is not the most representative song about the whole album but, hey, which is? Ashes is so dinamic and unique... I like this choice.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: MaxPayne on 22 February 2005, 20:21:21
I think neither Cure nor Equilibrium are weak songs. I love them both.
IMHO Endogenisis is the most diverse song of the album. It's a mix of several styles they were using throughout the album. Unfortunately nobody plays 7'+ videos these days.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Black Swans on 22 February 2005, 20:36:01
Thats a shame
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Peccatorum on 23 February 2005, 02:26:05
Yeah, I love them both, too... especially "Cure", 'cause my girlfriend...  :wub:
Anyway... Tristania haven't got the habit of make videos... make two of the same album could be amazing, but that will not happend for a while... so, must pick one.
There's so many great song on Ashes, but I trust in their decision, and hope to see, as soon as possible, another great work of my beloved band...  :D
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Tjeerd on 23 February 2005, 08:42:45
Cure is in my opinion the 'weakest' song (still better than 75% of all songs out there), I prefer all other songs. on the album.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: fallen_am_i on 23 February 2005, 12:38:33
I believe that cure is one of the best songs in Ashes (if not the best).But it's all about tastes....  :)
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Peccatorum on 23 February 2005, 14:00:46
Depends a lot the state of mind at the moment.
Right now, Cure is my favorite song on Ashes...
But, As fallen_am_i said, it's all about tastes...
I would love to hear it live
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Black Swans on 23 February 2005, 20:11:30
I have to agree with Tjreed, cure and equilibirium are the cream of the candy, but the wretched, circus, shadowman are the crust inside it!
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Darth-Angina on 23 February 2005, 21:13:12
Cure and Equlibrium are also my faves, especially Cure (also due to Vibeke's vocals, I love songs that are only based on her vocals) ... Along with Shadowman, Libre, Endogenesis and Bird.... And I simply can't embrace The Wretched, there' sth about this song that it diables it to crawl under my skin.... :/
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Peccatorum on 23 February 2005, 22:51:30
Shadowman is the one I cannot like... I don't know why, but I think it's the simple and weakest song in Ashes... but the majority in this forum seams to like it...

It won't make it on MTV.  I don't like singles either.  I suppose if it makes the band money(which they probably need) I could learn to live with it.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Emperor_Konny on 02 April 2005, 01:12:11
MTV would make a great promotion for the band by playing it.
The danger is, that a lot of "kiddies" would listen to that and thin "wow, it's cool because it's on MTV, so that must be cool" and the band could become more Nightwish-like or Him-like, with a lot of fans who listens to the music just because it's in
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Minstrel on 02 April 2005, 09:24:07
Tristania with "Equilibrium" is not half as cool as Nightwish with "Nemo" and "WIHAA"...  B)  Hehe.

Well, the only reason Tristania COULD make major appearance is because of the front woman. Those are quite popular, aren't they? This is not Nu Metal, Pop or HipHop (or... Nightwish). Even it may be the catchiest of the whole album, this doesn't mean people will like it more... well, actually I can't find any reason why the 08/15 trend-listener would like THIS sound!^^

MTV is a difficult question... but, as most of us like Equilibrium, wouldn't it be nice to see it on TV, since it's infested with... bad music? Like I wrote, I can't imagine any "trendyness". Well, I can't even imagine it would be played during the day...
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Emperor_Konny on 02 April 2005, 12:16:16
MTV plays sometimes bands with terrible sound and a  lot of people start to love those bands just because they are on MTV. And Tristania has much better sound, and it's not a "hard-listening" band, not a band like Morbid Angel or Sinister :)
And, here is a very stupid review made by Kerrang!

http://www.tristania.com/reviews/kerrang_jan_2005.jpg (http://www.tristania.com/reviews/kerrang_jan_2005.jpg)

Quotation "Östen Bergöy (Ville Valo style crooning) and Vibeke Stene (Amy Lee-esque operatics)". So we can cleary see where Tristania is placed to be by "Kerrang!" between Him and Evanescence both more or less pop bands. We now that it's just for promotion but an overage teenager "Kiddie" who doesn't know Tristania at all would believe that, he would listen to CD and think "Yeah, "Kerrang!" is right". And when he even sees the video on MTV, then he would be totaly convinced that the comparison to pop bands was true :)

This is more than dreadful. Some people just shouldn't be reviewing, if they aren't capable of writing something constructive.

As it consideres MTV - I don't like it, I don't watch it and I hope Tristania won't ever get there, unless they'd wish so (which, hopefully, they won't.)

[snapback]10015[/snapback]

It's quite nice that they zoomed on Vibeke, that's not the problem. The video somehow fits to the lyrics and Vibeke plays her role there. And Östen is also presented by the director of the video very often.
But - the cheap "photoshop" effects wich distrot their faces are not  so nice. These effects could be left out and video would be look better :)
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: Black Swans on 03 April 2005, 18:36:25
But it would have been better if they left vibekes face alone, not over zoom in every while, there was one time i though her eyes will pop out!
But over all a nice vedio, i gave it a rating of 5... Osten and Vibeke acted the vedio out nicely and the old man! He Rocked!

I think some parts were filmed through shards of glass, just like the photoshoot.
I thought Østen mentioned something like that.

Let's see, Nuclear Blast puts it's focus on their two main bands: Dimmu Borgir & Nightwish (IMO the DB vid owns NW's 'nemo' on all sides) and therefor have a large budget for those bands. SPV haves a lot of well-known bands and Tristania is just one of them.

I wouldn't be suprised the Equilibrium video is made with less than 10% of NW's budget.

But, this is my guess.

[snapback]10102[/snapback]

I have to disagree a little bit concerning Nuclear Blast. OK, it seems to be true that Nightwish and Dimmu Borgir recieve all the best (Markus of NB is a big Dimmu Borgir fan). But Nevertheless, the other bands like Anthrax (e.g. video with Kenau Reaves), In Flames and Manowar get also big budget for their videos.
OK, these bands are also much more popular than Tristania.
But even smaller bands at Nuclear Blast get a good budget for their productions.

Concerning Tristania Video - surley the director of that Video got the most of the budget. I don't think that he would work "for nothing". He made videos for a real stars so he's not selling his skills cheap...

I really don't know, but to quote Kjartan (producer of the video): "I think our video was shot with the budget of Nightwish's catering for Nemo." Maybe he can

By the way, Manowar & Anthrax have big budgets on their own, I think NB only does their european sales. (Manowar's distribution is since recently being done by SPV, indeed: Tristania's label.)

Yes, I also think so, but I think that the most part of that "Nemo-catering budget" went to Ralf. By chosing an unknown or less known director for that video could have been saved a lot of money for the video itselfs. But don't get me wrong, it just my opinion based on the facts wich I know yet. Of course it can be wrong, and I don't want to tell what should have been done and what should not be... :)

And concerning Manower, yes, they changed to SPV not time ago and they were a short time at NB. Anthrax are so to say real metal stars so NB does everything to keep them on their lable :)

If the Libre video turns out to be something like the Heretique video then I guess we won't see any bandmembers in there.

I think there are more interesting ways to do a music video than showing a band performing the song.
The Vibeke vs. Østen part worked great. The moody locations emphasised the atmosphere of the song.

Of course, but it could be allowed for the band who has a lot of videos.
The video gets more unpersonal, something distant to the band if it does not appear in that...

What about all Tool-video's? There isn't one with the band as far as I know. Only those weird surrealistic plays.
Title: Equilibrium video
Post by: MaxPayne on 13 April 2005, 16:46:34
Of course, how could I overlook TOOL's videos. I love these little masterpieces. They appear in at least of their videos. In their black&white clip 'Hush' they walk around naked except for some parantal advisory signs.
I prefer their grotesque story videos. These dark surreal stories perfectly support the mood of the music. I can't see a way that a performance video can create such an atmosphere. It's not necessarily less personal. Abstraction can be more personal than anything straight.

Equilibrium... this video was the one which gave me a strange desire to give Ashes another chance (i didn't like the album at my first listen). after giving it its second chance many of them followed afterwards until i developed some sort of addiction for it. nowadays i can't end my day without giving Ashes a listen... oh well now for the video... the video is pretty good, imo. not the best you can find but certainly very well worked and pretty moody. the duet between Vibeke and Osten is great, it gives the video some more atmosphere... overall it's a great video and i'm hoping the video for Libre will also show the band members clearly, all of them if posible :)

The plot is simple and the song is not. I don1t like the idea of putting comlicated ideas of complicated songs in such simple conception. I thing there are only ewo ways of making videos to such genius songs:
1. To make very strange video with lot`s of metaphors
2. To make video with only scenes of the band
 
But if they would have cut the place with the old man, I`d like this video very much. :D

Yeah, I watched "Equilibrium" today on the TV and thought the same thing. I wish that maybe either they left out the old man, or the band shots. It seems as though they were a bit undecided as to what the direction would be for the video. Hopefully the "Libre" video will be better at this.

Yessum. We have something called "ON-Demand" from our cable company, and it has a bunch of videos, including "Equilibrium".

Well I saw the video yesterday on a sat rock/metal tv, and I must say it's really nice. probably the most "radio-friendly" (if you can label a song so) track by tristania, but I liked it very much... I haven't totally understand the plot though  :huh:  :P

Well it's cool that our Tristania fans who live much further away from Euroland can see the videos!! I'm very happy that they have made them. The Equilibrium video is now on the Monsters Of Metal DVD by Nuclear Blast!

The Video is also included in the Beautiful Voices DVD of Nuclear Blast along with Nemo, and more...
It also has a CD which includes Libre song I think.

The video was included on the "ashes" cd that I got.  I enjoyed it, but yeah there were many issues with it.  The band shots were great, and so were the old man shots.  BUt the combination of two threw it off balance.  If there is going to be a storyline in the video, I find it pointless to show the band, simply playing.

I suppose they wanted to show as much of the band as possible... and a story too..  probably too much for that amount of time...
