Gothic Dream (歌德梦)

Gothic Dream (歌德梦) by Autumn Insects (秋天的虫子) is the Grand Prize Winner for the MusicDish*China Music Video Competition With a hard pounding band and a sexy lead singer, one look at the video, which shows the band performing, tells you that this is one band who takes their music seriously. The video shows all band members dressed in black, appearing out of nowhere one at a time in what appears to be a corridor wrapped in plastic with smoke -- very nice special effects. The black and white setting gives the video an even more interesting look. The music is hard rock gothic with calm breaks, and the female vocalist sings first in Chinese and then in English, adding a touch a sophistication to the presentation.
