Introducing Victor
- The wheel has once again been set in motion - the next single, a double 'A' side, featuring Nancy and In My Laboratory, is due to be released on Monday 25th June, and as such we've been busy with the promotion schedule.
The music video for 'In My Laboratory' will be directed by filmmaker Danny Helme (who impressed us all with his short 'BUNK') and will star the newest addition to the 5th Wheel collective, Victor.
Victor is a scientist who is currently studying chemical processes and the decay of living beings, with #inmylaboratory being be his first experiment.
We've launched a facebook page for Victor and I'd encourage you to head on over and click 'like'... we'll be adding more behind the scenes photos and clips as we get closer to the release date.
We'll also be releasing more information on the (already shot) video for Nancy soon, in the meantime here's a photo taken during said shoot:
Finally, some reviews of the double single have started trickling in from the blogosphere, and they seem (so far) reasonably positive!
Over and out.
Andy.
