Mary Zimmer (vocals) further states: “Recently, we were approached by
Madison’s CW network for an interview so we were more than happy to
oblige, and were surprised at the request. It’s not too often that you
see metal bands on regular television, let alone a morning show like
‘The Daily Buzz’ here in Madison. The CW crew came out and interviewed
us at The Annex, one of our favorite venues here in Madison, and we also
did a live performance of ‘Forever More,’ which they cut into the story
as well. It was a great experience and we are so glad to have such huge
hometown support.
“Speaking of videos, in the last couple of weeks, we’ve also completed
filming our first music video for our album The Absence. It will be of
the song ‘Forever More’ and it was shot in Monroe, Wisconsin – a really
small town where some of the guys grew up – in a place called the Monroe
Arts Center. It used to be a church, but has been converted for concerts
and performances, but the video is going to look very epic as the
building was awesome. It was shot by acclaimed director David Brodsky,
who has done TONS of other metal videos (Bleeding Through, The Agonist,
Black Dahlia Murder, Whitechapel, etc.) and has won several awards from
MTV2s Headbanger’s Ball. He and his production assistant, Allie, were
great to work with and we think the video is going to look incredible.
When the video is up, we will be stoked for you all to see it and we
can’t wait to hear what you think!”
LUNA MORTIS prides itself on blurring genre lines to arrive at something
both beautiful and aggressive. Their ability to capture a progressive
and dark sound should appeal to metalheads regardless of their sonic
inclinations. Zimmer’s approach is unlike her contemporaries with an
unlimited range and dynamic scope that will quickly help set the group
apart from the pack. The album, produced by the acclaimed Jason Suecof
(All That Remains, Trivium), is now available worldwide and be sure to
