Western Australia’s progressive metal practitioners VOYAGER have unveiled a brand new fan-driven video for their track “Seize The Day,” one of the most charging anthems on their acclaimed full-length, The Meaning Of I, released in November 2011 via New Jersey-based Sensory Records.

Using a collection of smartphone recordings from fans on March 2nd in their hometown of Perth, Western Australia and from fans from across the globe, VOYAGER have put together the best footage submitted by these fans, to create this unique piece of music video creativity. Check out the awesome video and an informative statement about the creation of the video by director Ben Berkhout AT THIS LOCATION.
