Truly a visual feast, BESEECH's "Innerlane" video will be making its American television premiere tonight on Fuse's "Metal Asylum" show, starting at 11 p.m. EST. The lead video off the band's critically acclaimed new album, "Sunless Days," which HIT PARADER has called "nothing short of phenomenal," "Innerlane" is completely animated and in the meantime can be viewed here

The "Innerlane" video was created by new Swedish animator Henrik Skoglund and his company, Framecore Production, between June and August of this year. Says founding guitarist/songwriter Robert Vinterland, "We decided to make the video animated for different reasons, but the main thing was was that it was easier to show and 'explain' the surrealistic and abstract world of Beseech. With the video, we also wanted to do something more original and put the band itself outside the whole thing, which we think also creates the mysticism behind the band, and that crosses boundries of what you can expect from Beseech. We're really satisfied with the result and think it turned out to be a combination of a Tool video with feelings from a Salvadore Dali painting and influenced by Asian Manga movies."
