Video of the Week: Heyerdahl "Mirage"

(by Dawn Reed) Oslo Norway's producers of lush rock Heyerdahl are about to release their debut album ØEN on Jan. 28. Now the back story on recording this is pretty dope.  They trekked out to record in a lighthouse on the west coast of Norway, where a winter storm hit them.  I haven't had a chance to hear the album yet, but according to one reviewer, you can hear the power of the wind that drove waves up against the windows!  An adventurous time indeed, which translates visually into this video for "Mirage."  In this video, an aged woman dying from leprosy has one final wish carried out post-cremation by her son and granddaughter. Which goes to show that after we pass, we can still set up some awesome adventures for those we leave behind.
