QRV Artist in News for Award Nomination

The Antarctican has been nominated in two categories for the first ever Extreme Music Awards right in their home (when they’re not rubbing shoulders with penguins), New York’s Capital Region . ABC News Channel 10 has the story:

The nominations are for Best Power Metal Band, and Best Music Video, for “I Is The Lie”. If you haven’t seen the video yet, you can watch here:

Plans for a Pro Music Video Foiled

Noah and the Chilly Boys managed to acquire enough aluminum foil and LEDs to realize their dream of creating a music video that perfectly fits the tone of their debut single. As a team of five “adults”, it can be difficult to manage the hurdles that come along with time management, teamwork, and creative collaboration. It’s nice to see that they’re not afraid to poke fun at themselves and have a good time along the way.

Watch and giggle: “Abduction”

Unofficial Bio:

Actively denying that pandemic boredom spawned a metal band, the members of The Antarctican indulge a fantasy that their project comes from the lethal desolation of that icy continent, a primordial cross-section of unfathomable extra-terrestrial sophistication, mutagenic radioactive reptile droppings, and limitless volcanoes of molten mental magma.  What The Antarctican is not, they assure you, is five guys from upstate New York who argue about squirrels a lot.
