| I think a video for visions would be a lot wiser, say with the band dressed in balc performing around cgi fire and some quick scenes of nostradamus and his visions etc. that would be a lot better |

| My impression is that the WAR video has to do with one or more of Nastradamus' predictions. We only have a minute teaser so it's hard to tell until we see the whole video. nevertheless, no "visions" video to support the single is not a smart move. |

Visions IS the single. Look up the news on here, it says so.
Nostradamus was a cool song they decided to release first.
And I'm as confused as most people are about the song War having a video, a very bad CG video that has nothing to do with Nostradamus....
They will be touring all this year and all next year with Nostradamus.

| What doesn't make sense is why have a "WAR" video and no video to promote the "new single" such as "Visions" or "Nostradamus".. Like wise their current set list should contain "visions" & "nostradamus" to effectively promote their upcoming CD release. |

| I like this video. Really fantasy and creative. Good to see 'Priest have moved from typical video shootings, to computer animations. The clip reminds me of Final Fantasy. It's good to see that finally since the Painkiller tour, 'Priest will do some heavy promotions. Visions being announced the first single. And this War promo music video. Scene is set very well for Priest. |

Really like the animation- reminds me of the intros in Heroes III.
Who needs realistic graphics? Its not meant to be realistic, and its far more convincing than some recent animated music videos- what about that one Maiden had for 'Different World'?
Anyhow, I like the song, good lyrics, not head bangable but still dark and heavy in an OTT way that also reminds me of computer game battle scene music. In a good way. Ahh who cares about criticisms, it's fun stuff |

I thought the video was awesome. Remember Youtube doesn't have the best quality so I would think the actual video will be way better.

That is a kick ass video! Very gamerlike. Cool effects and I love the way everything moves with perfect symmetry to the song.
