Check out the video from progressive metalcore band, Circuitry

June 25, 2015

Progressive metalcore band, Circuitry have created a very creative video for their song, Horizon which is off their self titled debut album. Check out the video here: Circuitry was born from the ashes of Dark Empire as drummer Matt Guglielmo and guitarist Christian Colabelli played together in Dark Empire. After creating songs for the new album, vocalist Joel Monet heard the songs and became inspired. Together the three continued on and even played shows with a bass robot, (bass DI tracks from the computer re-amped through a bass cab).  Soon after, Jason Mingalone joined as bassist. The video was created by director Matt Provenzano who traced each frame on the chalk board and then took a picture of that frame. He did this 1,500 times until the video was complete. It took Matt and the band 2 and ½ months to complete this singular video.  ‘Like everything Circuitry does, it elevates its form and content head and shoulders above the rest.’ We will see if we can bring you an interview with them soon.
