The Sword – ‘Freya’ Video to Receive National MTV2 TV Premiere on Headbangers Ball

THE SWORD’s latest music video, for the song “Freya” will receive its national MTV2 TV premiere this weekend as part of the network’s “Headbangers Ball” program.  

Taken from the Austin, TX quartet’s critically acclaimed debut album, Age of Winters, the “Freya” video was shot in Hollywood, CA with Director Barnaby Roper.  The striking video, played out amongst the shadows, was shot on HD film using a unique mixture of black and white and color and details the story of “Freya”, who “appears on a battlefield after a battle and wanders through the corpses looking for warriors to take back to Folkvang”.  A still shot from “Freya” can be viewed at this location.  The hard-hitting single is currently being serviced to radio stations and video outlets nationwide.

THE SWORD are in the midst of a North American tour alongside Trivium now.  The much talked about metal unit will perform at the Trocadero Theatre in Philadelphia, PA this evening.  A full listing of upcoming THE SWORD live performances follows this message.

“Headbangers Ball” airs Saturdays at 10:00 PM EST on MTV2.  Episodes can be also viewed via the network’s broadband video channel, “MTV Overdrive” at: http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/
