Wrath (http://www.wowinsider.com/tag/wrath-101/) is out! It's time to celebrate! We can all dance in the Tundra with this music video by Legs, called Route 440 (http://www.warcraftmovies.com/stream.php?id=94625&stream=Filefront&h=3d96ab8618001fc3d6c2501e28db81f6).
There's no story here. Legs warns us that there is no coherent narrative to speak of, and we're pretty well suited to believe him. I will say, though, that I felt the gnome action was a little dramatic, and I felt bad for the critters when they were laid low. Why people always gotta be so rough on gnomes? And while that wasn't a story, per se, it definitely felt like narrative to me.
That being said, I really loved the way the imagery works. Legs admitted right up front that it's all pretty random, but the variety of scenes and sets came together fairly cohesively. The music was strong for its pacing, and I liked the use of current graphics (pre-Wrath) to help motivate the "not-story."
