I directed the music video for Boneyards by Australian metalcore band Parkway Drive, aiming to capture the raw intensity and energy of their live performances. The band wanted a visceral, high-impact visual that reflected their stage presence, so we focused on dynamic camera work and frenetic editing to match the song’s relentless pace.
While the video primarily showcases the band’s explosive live energy, we also incorporated loose thematic references to the song’s lyrics about being buried at sea. To evoke this emotion, we integrated carefully selected stock footage, adding an atmospheric layer to the video’s narrative. The result is a hard-hitting visual experience that complements the power and aggression of Boneyards.
