An excellent new official video has been created for one of Demonstealer's songs, which can be checked out HERE.
Sahil 'Demonstealer' Makhija had this to say about it:
"I think the video takes a step away from the conventional metal ones and I'll give complete credit to director Guilherme for this vision. I guess it was born from not actually having a full band or even myself to shoot because we are in different countries. So I gave him complete creative freedom and he delivered the goods I think."
