Toronto’s VODNIK have posted a new behind the scenes trailer for the debut music video “Our Dread, Our Joy” unleashed last month. Shot by Trenches Media Inc., the video captures the band’s approach of blending heavier and lighter styles of metal, which range from technical riffs, to spooky mellow passages, to hardcore breakdowns for an overall well balanced sound between progressive grooves and dark atmospheres that is bizarre and ominous yet catchy and memorable.
Drummer Vince Anastasi comments:
“The making of Our Dread, Our Joy was quite the experience. The location of the video was shot at the Ruins of St. Raphael in Cornwall, Ontario. It is a remarkable place unlike anywhere else in Ontario. The band knew it was important that we hire the right film crew who could capture the ruins in all its glory and give life to our vision for the video and band. After shopping around for a crew, we decided that The Trenches Media would be suitable for the job. Together with The Trenches Media and the location, the band was confident that we could create a quality product that was both professional and aesthetic.”

About:
Drawing their name and lyrical themes from the mythological Czech creature, guitarist Jeremy Jackson explains:
“In Czech, Vodnik roughly translates to ‘of water’. I adopted the name for us because it is a widely celebrated mythological creature from my Czech heritage. Vodnik is gruesome, perfect for metal and what we want to do with it.”
Vocalist Reinier Vandenbosch adds:
“Lakes and rivers are its territory where it awaits to trap the souls of drowning victims. He is similar to the boogieman of the English-speaking world that also scares children. I try to write the lyrics largely from the perspective of the Vodnik creature.”
Along with embracing themes centered around the creature, VODNIK is also inspired by science fiction and horror, social and political commentary, dark philosophical ideas, and other mythological stories. Citing a wide variety of musical influences, VODNIK is a legit, no nonsense, monstrous groove metal four-piece that brings a ferocious energy to the stage.
