Hello Wide World of People on the Internet in 2013.
For some reason we, A Winged Victory for the Sullen,
now have an official You Tube page?
please enjoy….
Not to flog a dead horse, but we thought we would put this out there one more time being as the makers of this said little film did such a beautiful job, and we were truly lucky to be a part of this. And so as earlier quoted by Mr. Wiltzie….
A wise man once said, “conceptual art is a little bit like swimming through vomit”.
i could not agree more. i love a Guy Madden film because it looks beautiful, but i could care less about the meaning behind it. The same goes towards Christopher. Maybe he had some epiphany about who knows what when he heard our music for the first time, i am just pleased as punch that he delivered something this extraordinarily beautiful.
We started investigating video ideas with many different directors as early as April 2011, to no avail, except for blowing currency on apocryphal hopes. Mr. Hewitt delivered us a storyboard idea around the first week of October last year, and it was well worth the wait.
i feel fortunate to be surrounded by people like him, and the team @ Knucklehead Films. In the end we have inspired each other, and i can only hope we will work together again before i check out of this place….
Ireland is a place that has a rich culture and is also known particularly because of the mesmerizing Irish countryside with all it’s gorgeous castles that speak volumes about the beauty and the rich history of this magical land of Leprechauns. Ireland also has a long list of artists who have brought fame and laurels & and cemented it’s history among the greats of modern music. On another level of artistic merit, the Irish dance has mesmerized AWVFTS for years, especially Adam and his inability to freely dance his Irish jig in Brussels for fear of being persecuted. That is why we say to you Kilkenny, Ireland, that we are honored to be playing in your land of enchantment tomorrow evening, August 18th. Bring yourselves, and your delicious whiskey, and your Irish dance, and come celebrate with us….

It really has been ages since we last played Germany. looking through some of our tour photos we found this lovely memory from last time when Dustin took this dapper photo of Adam and some fans after the show in the Black Forest. We are really looking forward to playing the Haldern Pop Festival, this Thursday, August 9th @ 8pm. They are even letting us perform in a church with that drunken Belgian stoner Daan, so please come out as it should be a real swell time….

While lost in a field of longhorns way out in the western USA, Adam answered a few questions in an albeit slightly glib tone for the upcoming Incubate Festival in Holland this coming September….
