Kemi, Finland-based melodic metal band Sonata Arctica have filmed a music video for an acoustic rendition of their track ‘For The Sake Of Revenge’. Directed by Joonas Berghäll, the clip can be viewed below.
Speaking about the song, keyboardist Henrik Klingenberg said: “Originally recorded for Unia back in 2007, ‘For The Sake Of Revenge’ was a bit of an odd-ball – actually, the whole album was – nevertheless we somehow managed to look at this song in a different light and present the essence of it in a totally new way. It turned out so good that we even had to make a video for it.
“We were incredibly lucky to get to work with one of the most internationally acclaimed Finnish directors Joonas Berghäll. With his handpicked dream team, he shot us out in the woods, on deserted roads and even under water, back here in our hometown, Kemi. We’re really happy with how this single and video turned out, enjoy!”
