Rock/Metal music video research 2

This is an example of a mixture music video which fuses a performance with a narrative music video.

This is the music video to the song "In the shadows" by The Rasmus.

This music video includes the band playing and a narrative storyline. It alternates between the band playing in a music venue style place and the narrative storyline and finishes with the main character of the storyline in the music venue in front of the band.
The band are dressed in dark colours (mainly black) which creates the connotation that the band perhaps even the music is dark and mysterious. It also however reinforces the common stereotype that all Rock/Metal bands dress in black and are dark, mysterious even depressed people.
