This is a lyric video made for a metal band named "Attila". This is one of least favorite songs by this artist but they're a good band and this one randomly has one of these made for it. As far as who created the lyric video I cannot seem to find, only that the band released it back in October. I begins with a very unique logo design of the band's name. Metal bands always seem to use very obscured lettering in their name designs, dripping or twiggy, and difficult to read often. Then the words begin along with the song, and the text used for the lyrics is an all caps sans serif that has smoke and flames layered into it. The background is very violent and intense as expected. The choice of a condensed blocky sans serif font such as this one is good for quick readability, which is at a premium with the lyrics are moving that quickly. It is a good thing to remember that big bold fonts are much more suitable than a more intricate font with more dynamic aspects like contrast between thick and thin. The orientation of words changes as the verse turns to chorus, turns to bridge and so on. When Fronz (vocalist) screams very quickly the words seem to fall down into place in a long column quite tetris-like. Certain words of emphasis are made larger than others. This would be a very enjoyable job to have for me because music, especially music I enjoy, is what I've always wanted to be involved with.
