This week the band shared the official video for 'For All That is Yet to Be' with Post-Punk and the video can also be shared atYouTube. The Black Drumset's Brian Willey told Post-Punk, 'The video was a ton of fun to make. We did the whole thing, including preparing the location, shooting, and editing, in 24 hours. It was shot in a 7' x 15' pool so it took some work to create the illusion of a larger body of water. The videography was done by Christopher D. Walker, I did the directing and editing, and the concept was developed by myself, Thao Votang and Christopher Walker. I cajoled a few of my closest friends to be the actors.”
