Voivod - A "Forgotten" 2003 Performance Video, Feat. Jason Newsted, Surfaces Online
The long-lost 2003 performance video for the Voivod track "Blame Us," originally from the band's self-titled album Voivod, has been shared on YouTube. You can check it out below. This unexpected discovery was found deep in the production archives by former ILM Visual Effects artists Jeff Ertl and Keith McCabe, who also directed the iconic "We Carry On" video featured on MTV's Headbangers Ball.
Shot during Voivod’s 2003 tour with Sepultura, the footage captures the raw energy of the band’s performances in Tucson, AZ, Albuquerque, NM, and El Paso, TX. Additional scenes were filmed at the Bourbon Street Bar and Grill in Concord, CA, and Jason Newsted's Chophouse Recording Studio. The video showcases Voivod's Mark III legendary lineup, including the late Denis "Piggy" D'Amour, Michel "Away" Langevin, Denis "Snake" Bélanger, and Jason "Jasonic" Newsted.
Commented Jeff Ertl: "Uncovering this video was like finding a missing puzzle piece from Voivod's illustrious history. It's a privilege to share this moment with the world, giving fans a glimpse of a powerful performance that many thought was lost to time. The timing of its discovery makes the song's message all the more powerful today."
