"Waiting for the End" Music Video

Today we premiered the music video for "Waiting for the End." It was an opportunity to experiment with pushing the digital envelope as it pertains to the visual language created thus far for A Thousand Suns. It was my attempt to digitally crush us to the point that you feel the soul of the music through what has become the essence of us. We become the ghosts in the machine. Some may say that because of technology, we lose a sense of who we are. I counter that by illustrating that we can get closer to who we are if we sift through the noise. If this sounds like it's too 'out there,' just ignore what I said and enjoy the pretty pictures. Let me know what you think here.

If you haven't seen it, here's a link.

I think the video is spectacular. At first when I first saw it, I felt a bit strange, something new. Is different from others and that makes it very original. And about the song, I love it.

I think the video is really good, it certainly gives the feeling of the song, to the point where the song is brought to be at its best when combined with the images. And viceversa. I understand what you mean, since the video gives off that essence and feeling you talked about. I also find it quite relaxing, but that's an entirely different matter. Thanks for the hard work!!

easily the best track of the last few years imho.

checkout Fightstars' new LP if you like this.

just by far the best British metal band in decades.

these lads are not gettin the recognition they deserve.

'Follow Me Into The Darkness' is an absolute classic

I like the new sound but what is getting to me is that some songs sound like they have gone to a political stance but even though it drives me nuts, i still like it because of the beats.
