So Much For Love

Anidroc has released a new Video Single entitled "So Much For Love" today Tuesday November 15th. The song is an Anidroc original recorded at Anidroc Studios and comes from the 'My Prayer' Album released in December 2015. So "Much for Love" is the fourth single to be released from this album after "Bombdropper," "Under Your Steel" and "My Prayer." It is an 80's style retro rock pop anthem with the characteristically haunting Anidroc vocals.

The lyrics centre around the refrain refection on "So much for love when revenge awakes." It's a desperate and angry cry of anguish at a love gone down wrong alley. Love is compared to a wasteland where all dreams have run barren and when this happens the lovelorn person howls with a hunger ready to bite. (Full lyrics below video) 

The "So Much For Love" video takes the song to a new dimension and features Ben Dage, a successful musician on tour with his band and his fiancee Giselle. However things take on a evil turn when political events at home turn his people, The Faceless into an oppressed and persecuted race by the Voiceful in Anidroc City. What will happen when the singer's revenge awakes?

The Video introduces Berrydroc News performed by the charming Jagoda Beltrani Anidroc. The video is supposed to portray a surrealistic image of real events in today's world without any direct reference to specific countries or people. It is concerned with the human tragedy created by warfare and political mongering. The Voiceful, those who carry weight in world politics and power over the Faceless, those who get brushed thoughtlessly aside in their wake.

Directed by Mario Cordina, "So Much For Love" the Anidroc Crew also worked in collaboration with Clothes Pegs, Bandages, Old Unseemly Socks, Duck Tape, Blue Tac, Toothpicks, Toilet Paper, Carton and Scissors.

The "So Much for Love" Video is also being used as a Anidroc Film tutorial entitled 'How to Make a Film from Nothing." The tutorial will demonstrate how to make films on a tight budget through a mix of still animation and other tricks used in the making if this video.

Lyrics

"So Much For Love"
by Anidroc

So Much for Love


My joy, my pain,
Washed in the cold, cold rain,
My life, my worthless life,
Is all you stand to gain.
My flesh, my blood,
Is all here for you to take,
My rage, in my cage,
Is the one thing you cannot break.

And so much for love,
That ego breaks,
And so much for love,
When revenge awakes.

My hopes, my dreams,
Riding on a nightmare,
My eyes, my smiles,
Down an abyss on a bottom stair.
My love, my love,
Cries out in a desert night.
My rage in my cage,
Hungry howls ready to bite.

And so much for love,
That ego breaks,
And so much for love,
When revenge awakes.

Sing goodbye

'So Much For Love' Anidroc Workshop.

Here's the Anidroc Workshop at Work on the 'So Much For Love" Video Clip.

Step 1 Creation
The first slideshow is about the first stages of production. Ben Dage and all the protagonists created By Anidroc Film Workshop in collaboration with Pegs and Bandages.

Step 2 Graphics
The second slideshow is about the second stage of production with a series of test pictures taken to get the feel and first glimpse of what the movie would eventually look like. Some of these test pictures were used to create graphics that were used in the real film itself. Test shots are a very important stage of film making. The idea starts taking shape and the technical hurdles become apparent and therefore solvable.

Andiroc My Prayer (Our Story) Video Release

Andiroc has released it's title track 'My Prayer' from the 2015 album with the same name on the 9th of September 2016. The track is an original Anidroc tune by Andiroc, lyrics by Mario Cordina. Recorded at Anidroc studios in Jana Z Kolna in Szczecin, Poland.

The video is a double release with My Prayer Our Story being the first part of two films starring Jagoda Beltrani Andiroc and Mario Andiroc. Guest stars include John Perkins, Sharon Naudi, Ramon Naudi and Amanda Hsu. The film is directed by Mario Cordina for Anidroc and features photos by Amanda Hsu.

The story is that of a man writing a prayer of love and sending it as a message in a bottle floating on the waves, to be picked up by a woman in some other part of the world. The pictures evolve round the real wedding scenes and emotions filmed on the 6th of August 2016 when Jagoda Beltrani Andiroc and Mario Andiroc joined their hands in marriage on St.Paul's Island in Malta.

"'My Prayer' is a very personal and emotional album throughout. Both of us thought that it was a fitting end to the album and a fitting theme for its video. Never in our wildest dreams did we ever think that this song composed about two years ago would ever encapsulate such an important moment in our lives." Mario Anidroc.

"Mario's prayer seemed to echo my own thoughts and feelings when I heard it the first time. It felt so close to my own perception of love in personal life and beyond. We had known each other for a long time, this song just brought us that step closer to each other." Jagoda Beltrani Anidroc.

"At the end of the day music is about sharing and we decided to share this moment in time with all of you." Mario Anidroc. 

My Prayer

Lyrics ( Andiroc)

I pray for love,

May it save me from harm,

Keep me warm, keep me sane,

Make me forget, 

Soothe and brush away the pain.

And I pray for love,

May it carry me home.

Share my hopes, share my bed,

That I may find, 

A goal, a road ahead.

I pray for love,

Is there love out there?

Will you carry me home,

Will you give me someone,

To care for?

Watch the video and wish the Andiroc couple the best of life to come.
