To me this wasn't punk/new wave, it was more metal/prog metal reminiscent of bands like Dreamtheater - almost te sort of thing pubk supposedly rebelled against! If they wrote melodies for the vocals and had a singer who could sing them well, then I'd be buying their stuff. (The second vocalist and girl were OK, but not up to the standard of the bands playing)
Still, commenting on the ban is not what we're here for, is it?
I thought the video was very good, just short of perfect. I think the fast cuts were fine and we saw what was written enough times to work it out. Occasionally I thought we had too long on the story without a break back to the band.
The acting was good, the shots were good, the edit was good, the story was good and the sound was a studio recording. What more can I say?
