I guess its time for me to post this pic for the first time.

Haha I see everybody has the same thing: As soon as you start the forum, the video starts to play! At first I thought I was going crazy because I didn't see the video. And I dind't have any Media Player running! So I thought my PC was playing music by itself.

About the video, IT ROCKS!!! It did load a bit slow. But no problem playing it. It worked perfectly! Great job guys!

Story: sink or swim. Or or, or and?

Okay, first things first: it really starts to anoy me that the clip starts automaticly.

And now about the post: What? I don't really get it. Your video was just performing in front of a CGI background. With story I mean something like this:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/n5s_bQ-iz3E&hl ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/n5s_bQ-iz3E&hl=de&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

video is very good. tested it with 460Mbit no problems. also at home with my fucking small 2mbit no probs. thx for the video

Thx for the great video.

I love to see when you all make the music and I hate those stupid "storyvideos" that bring nothing to the song.

You are all great.

If done right it can add something to the song. And sorry, I just don't like videos in which the Band is just standing and playing their song.

And now that I watch it again, I think there is a bit too much smoking and the light from the background should've been tuned down a bit.

YES!!!!!!!


The video is wonderful!!!! I like a lot the sci-fri atmosphere and fits a lot. And I PREFER a lot these kind of videos where I can see the band. Awesome!

And now we'll have the song with better quality by extracting the audio track form the video too!!


PS: Downloading...

Thanks A LOT Jens! And the quality is very good, and no problems with playing and loading whatsoever.

The video is cool, suits well with the cover! Congrats!

if it were up to me id release the vid to the public now well technically it is but theres not really any thing to change the i like the vid the way it is and actually at higher rez you can make more out cause im watching on a 26" HD monitor so let her go if you so choose Jens. ...for viewing pleasure if you have a high quality file of this for us board members to get a better look at it that would be highly appreciated but not nessecary

symphox what a cool intro website!!

Yes, it would be cool to have a better quality video too, but it's soon maybe.

Video loads and plays no problems; no stutter. Startled me at first, since I went to the last page of the thread, originally and couldn't find the damn thing. "What video?!!" duh.

Anyway, I think a performance video was the perfect choice for the first glimpse of the band since the hiatus and fracas. It's somewhat affirming to see them all playing with such energy and enthusiasm. Just that bit of background imagery to add atmosphere was enough. There was some washout from glare at times, which I had thought at first might just be the angle of my flat screen. But overall great video and completely appropriate for the first video, especially considering the heavy instrumental focus of the song.I think a video with a story line would have been a bit trite and distracting for this particular song.

Well done.

eat your heart out Tolkki. This is beyond amazing.

Sometimes when you read the stratoforum you get to see stuff before anyone else.. and also you become a guinea pig / beta tester.

It's the first time I try to host a large file here on Dreamhost which will get a lot of hits over the next months... So, does it load? Does it stutter? Could you please let me know, do we need to put this on youtube instead? I like the picture quality and stereo sound of the file above though. It would be good if it worked.

(And hey, if you were able to watch it, what do you think?)

I guess will make a news item about this tomorrow, then the rest of the world will get to see it too, not only you stratoforum addicts

This file was way too large for my mobile broad band...(mokkula). The Youtube -version worked.
The video looked great . But the cutting was not that good, I mean when you were playing the great solos, in the picture there was not showing who was playing... Please can you work with that?

nefertari: And you HAD to quote the video so now it also plays automatically on this page

don´t you have mute-button?

Could you please edit your post? This gets fucking anoying!v

nefertari wrote: don´t you have mute-button?

Of course, but I don't want to mute the music I'm listening to
And I'm not too good with double-music-listening

The song and video is so great that I guess I easily can get used to being interrupted by it
(Or I should probably stop surfing this forum when I am supposed to do something else).

sorry

The video (and song) are awesome. Had no idea why something was playing at first as I skipped to the last page

EDIT: Oh and it runs fine.

This settles it. Kotipelto needs a microphone in his music videos.

Jens,thank you so much for uploading this video!

The post-production is awesome. The effects are just awesome.

It was slow to download with my 1M broadband connection too. But then it worked fine and I liked it.

Video loads fast and runs smoothly, it's also very good video I'm not really a fan of any music video but this one was one those fews which I watched from begining to the end

Loads and plays very well, no stuttering or any other problems. It actually loaded faster than craptube, and the sound quality was much better!

Oh, and the song is absolutely brilliant!!!!!!


The video is ok as well, a bit too much glare for my taste though.

That would be a improvement. But I really like it!
