To be 100% honest, sometimes I wonder why there aren’t more Asian-American rock bands to cover. Maybe we’re looking in the right places, but they seem to be in a much shorter supply compared to all the Youtube rappers and singers we see. So in that sense it’s refreshing to come across new material such as this MV for “How the Wicked Live” by The Slants, off their album Pageantry, released earlier this year. The song is a solid catchy rock tune and the video has a lot of good things going for it, including concept and location but ultimately the production values leave a little to be desired – especially in respects to lighting. Maybe I’m getting spoiled but I’ve seen some incredible things done on a next to nothing budget, and I think the visuals could have benefited from a little more polish.
Catch the making of featurette after the jump.
