Music video shoot for Midnight Danger's "Nocturnal Immortal" in Stockholm

It's been a while since my previous blog post, and while there is a lot to share - both from spring 2025 and more recent stuff - and I've also been sick in bed for a week and a half now, I still want to share this one thing with you in real time... 

On 24th August 2025, I travelled to Sweden's capital Stockholm, in order to take part in a music video shoot for the first time in many, many years. Midnight Danger taped the party scenes for their music video at "Garlic & Shots". The filming was a bit unusual. For one thing, you never knew when you would be on camera, "to keep things natural", so filming anything yourself or taking pictures wasn't an option. For another, the actual song from the music video wasn't played on set. Instead, we listened to Hardcore Superstar, amongst other bands, which I, of course, didn't mind. Like most people, I only heard the actual song - "Nocturnal Immortal" - for the first time yesterday when the music video was released. As I wrote yesterday on my social media channels: "Wow! What a song, what a music video - and what a plot... I did not see that one coming. Proud to be a part of this music video... ♥ ♥ ♥

You can kind of see me in close-up at 1:35. 

 


 

The result turned out great, and the day of filming was just as great. I met a lot of lovely people there, some of whom are also mentioned in my news article about the release of "Nocturnal Immortal". On location, I only managed to snap two shots, featuring frontman Chris Young, the male lead (Trench Dogs' rhythm guitarist Erwan "Stone" Lengliné) and Rëdlite guitarist Johnny Flame Lee, after the party scenes had wrapped.

  

 


This time, it would only take five days before I returned to Stockholm, but more on that in my next blog post...
