Zombies, Exorcisms, Werewolves! Oh My! All This And More In Kvelertak’s New Music VIdeo

Norwegian rock band Kvelertak has just released a music video for “Månelyst”, which comes from the band’s upcoming sophomore album Meir (out March 26th via Roadrunner Records). Directed by Fredrik Hana, the video “captures the director’s adoration for horror films.” The video features one horror trope after another and is definitely a labor of horror love.

Hana states, “I wanted to make a video that didn’t have any repetitious elements. I wanted to get as far away as possible from the kind of videos that has two, maybe three unique elements on constant circulation.

“Also, I totally dig horror films, always have, so I wanted to make something that showed my unconditional love for the genre. Working with this particular band just makes me want to go all the way.
