Here is a “teaser video” for The Chemists upcoming “This City” music video. The voiceover is, of course, done by Richard and apparently he is doing a spoken word version of the actual opening lyrics for the song (which coincidently is the opening track of the new album).
The video has been skilfully crafted by Mi, a video effects and animation studio in Manchester, U.K. The Chemists are signed to Distiller Records and the new single is due for release early in 2010.
To find out more about the project check out the Mi website.
Thanks to Ian at Mi for the news.
