Lord Zane of Society 1 directs new DMT music video “American Evolution”

The Los Angeles/Orange County, CA based Metal band DMT has released their second music video “American Evolution” on 6/11/12 off their debut EP “A Shift of Ages”. The video was directed and edited by Lord Zane of Society 1, who also directed Wayne Static’s solo debut video “Assassins of Youth”. DMT had teamed up with Lord Zane for their first video “Beneath the Surface” which has almost 40,000 views in just over 6 months. This time around they teamed up to capture the essence of their live performance and the intensity of their fans, utilizing a unique 180 degree view, which gives a wider spectrum of perception then most standard live music videos, this brings the viewer closer in on the performance as they pulse with the energies of the message and music. The intensity of the crowd is the catalyzing force of this video, for this brings out the inner spiritual forces which drive DMT. Featured in the crowd is their friend, Host of SullenTV and the official FACE of Sullen Clothing, Bernadette Macias. Bernadette just finished shooting a cover & 8pg spread for VAR magazine with Dave Navarro, she also is featured as the host of DMT’s “Behind the Scenes” preview look, Creating “American Evolution”:

The message behind "American Evolution" and the significance of the 6/11/12 release date is as follows, through the eyes of DMT:
..."As Jupiter enters Gemini today, the time has come for a shift of awareness; the time is Now to take back what is ours, the right to be Free and to explore and expand our own consciousness. The age of the Republican/Democratic dinosaurs has come and gone, A Shift of Ages is upon us to RE-store balance across this Land. IT starts in the melting pot of the world and shall ripple out from here, like a hurricane wave of consciousness, the inner and outer forces of creation and destruction at work to BRING THE CHANGE. The choice is Now in OUR hands, we either expand or decay together...Awaken! For the Time is Now to Expand who we Really ARE, to Reclaim our Minds, and to TAKE IT BACK!!! Bring on The American Evolution!" ~DMT...

Bio:

...As DMT, we are attempting to create music that pulses with the human energy field, and empower people to awaken the inner spirit. Influenced by a diversity of inner vision experiences, we are creating a sound different than what is currently explored. Powered by the use of sacred psychoactive plants and DMT the spirit molecule, we are tapping into the source of energy to bring you music straight from the gods themselves...Started in 2009 by brothers Alistar and Dave Valadez (formerly of the Los Angeles based band Mygrain), their music quickly gained the attention of talented artists and hungry musicians. They were joined in late 2009 by front man Jamie Rubel on vocal and Erick Daniel joined on drums in 2010. In 2009, they recorded their first demo with Tommy Decker and Mike Sarkisyan of Spineshank, which gained them a lot of notoriety around the Los Angeles area. They are currently in the studio completing their next EP due to be release in 12/21/11. They released their first single and music video from their upcoming EP on 11/11/11 for "Beneath The Surface", directed and edited by Lord Zane of Society 1. A solid headlining act with an original sound and style, DMT has played a multitude of large venues, opening for an assortment of national acts such as Korn, Fear Factory, Job For a Cowboy, Winds of Plague, In this Moment, Bleeding Through, White Chapel, All Shall Perish, As Blood Runs Black, Stick To Your Guns, Wayne Static, Sleeping Giant, Divine Heresy, Throwdown, Powerman 5000, Story of the Year and many others...

..."The past is only a memory, the future is only a vision, so look well into the present moment and deep Beneath The Surface and You too shall Awaken from the illusion...The time IS Now to Awaken and Embrace The Change!" ~DMT...
