So here we go, Truck the World’s first attempt at making a music video.
It’s a pretty dark song. Sung from the perspective of a child, pleading with their parents to listen to the kids, that the law of the land belongs to the people, not the government.
There’s a presidential election here on Sunday, and the band wanted the video finished in time for it -- they also wanted zombies, but i quoted them some Mick Jagger -- you can’t always get what you want … on this occasion, time wasn’t on our side.
The band are awesome, seeing them perform live is quite the experience. They are all classically trained musicians, playing traditional instruments, in a modern way, in this song there are two singers, one of whom, sings with the classic Mongolian throat singing styles. duujin daajin means see-saw.
The video was made for about $35 dollars, most of which was spent on rope.

Pretty damn great song, pretty damn great vid. I love the fact most of the money was spent on dangling small children in a safe manner. Rockin.
