Always wondered how to dance to funeral doom metal? Well, keep reading, because the track "Waldlander Im Herbst" from funeral doom one-man band Celestiial has been used as the soundtrack to Disconsolate, an experimental dance short film performed by the Ballet Deviare.

You can watch the nine-minute clip, directed by Adam Waltner, after the jump.

Disconsolate is described as a powerful, soul-entrancing depiction which illustrates the depths of human suffering. Set to "Waldlander im Herbst" from the funeral doom phenomenon Celestiial (aka Tanner Anderson), the piece evokes a feeling and mood that is as hypnotic as it is effecting.

Disconsolate's staging and patterning were influenced by the ballet "La Bayadere, Act II: The Kingdom of the Shades". Disconsolate was Ballet Deviare's recognition of its ballet foundation, while simultaneously redefining its classical roots.




Ballet Deviare was founded in 2003 and is located in New York City. Unbound by restrictive standards of tradition, Ballet Deviare was created and founded by Laura Kowalewski (co-director and choreographer) and Andrew Carpenter (co-director) with the intention of broadening the scope of dance, while providing audiences with original choreographic works.
