ver
the years, I've made no secret of how attractive I find the members of
BLUE MOVIE/BLACK FILM. Lean, mean and gorgeous, they've got a look that
lends itself well to music video. For BLUE MOVIE/BLACK FILM, it's
all about forging an uncommon sound - one marked by progressive metal,
dance and goth flourishes. It's a sound that they've been mining
successfully since I've known this New York City-based band and that
was when they were simply called BLUE MOVIE. In that time, guitarist
TONY PARIS and drummer LISA FOERDERER have been the constants. Current
vocalist ANTHONY NOTO has been with the band for a few years now and
has given the band's DARK HORSE COMICS feel a rock n roll spit shine.
The creative triumvirate is back with their new album BROKEN MACHINES
and the single THE COLD SONG is getting it's official premiere here at
ROCKWIRED.COM.
THE
COLD SONG has all of the hallmarks we've come to expect from
a
BLUE MOVIE/BLACK FILM music video. According to guitarist TONY PARIS,
the song was originally envisioned a dark Holiday-themed song. "I came up with the idea two
years ago and I was going to record it with some other
side project, but it ended up not working out so I thought about making
it this dark Holiday song."
The timing for the release of the single and music video couldn't have
worked out more perfectly, with Halloween less than a week away and
retail outlets starting their big Holiday kick. When asked why this
song was selected for a video, lead vocalist ANTHONY NOTO said: "Honestly, It kind of came
naturally. The first video we released from the album was PRISONER, but
this is actually the first video that we made for this album. It was
just an idea that we had early on. The idea for the video got
spawned initially because THE COLD SONG was actually the first
song that we wrote for this album. It felt logical. It was just a
natural progression for us."
According to NOTO, production of the video was an inside job."It was all done internally."
said NOTO "It was me and
DAVID who was our bass player at the time. DAVID shot it all and
with the help of my sister and my girlfriend, we made the costumes from
scratch, put together the story and shot it at TONY's place
in Pennsylvania."
