CHIMAIRA gives fans music video chance
CHIMAIRA is offering fans the chance to put their own spin on the
band’s newest video for “Destroy and Dominate.” Fans are encouraged to
download the video stem files from http://www.chimaira.com/destroythevideo <http://www.chimaira.com/destroythevideo>
and edit their own version. The new versions can be uploaded to
CHIMAIRA’s YouTube, and the band will hand-pick their favorite three
videos. The grand-prize winner will receive the limited edition box set
version of The Infection plus tickets to the band’s upcoming US tour! The second- and third-prize winners will receive tickets and/or CHIMAIRA merch.
Singer Mark Hunter commented on the contest: “We’re all really proud of
what friend and director Todd Bell put together for ‘Destroy and
Dominate’ but we were also curious to see what other people would be
able to do with the video. We
wanted to give fans the chance to have access to the footage and edit
their own version of the video. We are curious to see some other takes
on it. Fans can submit their video to our YouTube. We’re gonna pick the
best one and give them one of our limited editon box sets. We’ll pick a
winner July 10th.”
“I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with. I’m sure we’ll see
some amazing, some funny and some terrible versions. We’re looking
forward to seeing them all. I can’t wait to do my own version too, hell
I might even use the footage to make a new Chimaira video!”
CHIMAIRA recently wrapped up a support run on the Music As A Weapon
tour with Disturbed, and are now looking ahead to a string of
headlining dates leading up to the Decimation of the Nation tour this
summer with Hatebreed followed by a European tour in Fall.
