   That’s hilarious. Does he have the lyrics on his website? It’s obviously in heavily accented English, and the dude has a great eye for camp.

   Awesome. Tom Stern’s comments:

   I did this video for a Russian Metal Band called ANJ. It is pretty crazy. When I saw the lyrics it seemed to be an earnest tribute to Mikael Gorbachov (that’s how the Russians spell it), so I was a bit confounded about what the video concept should be, but then I had a brainstorm to take it way over the top and I think it was just the thing. Suffice to say it’s half Russian History allegory as told through an old zombie movie made in the Soviet Union, and half animated Soviet Propaganda posters. It’s in HD, so let it load a bit before you play it and then click the little “four arrows” symbol on the lower right part of the viewer to see it in true HD. BTW- the band has asked that I include their myspace address: myspace.com/anjkill

   Found the lyrics in a comment:

   Over Mother Russia

   There are moans and crys

   The convicted ones are marching

   to the never lands to die.

   The sound of birds’ singing

   is a farewell song,

   But this endless plain

   is where they belong.

   But one escaped

   Out of guardman’s sight

   With his only dream –

   To Let his country rise.

   Freedom was the goal

   He was dreaming of,

   And that person’s name

   Is Michael Gorbachov

   Against the oppressor –

   I’m the new tsar successor!

   Hey, it’s time to spill the masters’ blood,

   Time for us to rise up from the mud.

   Gorbachov , a simple Cossack man,

   By his side we’ll free our native land.
