Heath Ledger’s highly anticipated Modest Mouse music video now released!
The awaited Modest Mouse video directed by
Heath Ledger was finally released today.
“In January of 2007, while visiting his homeland of Australia, Heath Ledger presented Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse with an idea to direct a video for their yet-to-be-released song “King Rat”. Heath’s vision, brave and unapologetic in its nature, would marry his love of bold and original music with his impassioned stance
against the illegal commercial whale hunts taking place off the coast of Australia each year.”
With this video, Heath wanted to raise awareness about a cause he believed in deeply without having to say a word. It surely works very well! Watch carefully the last part of the video when the whales are taking off the skin of those humans they just harpooned, if this doesn’t gives you chills, I don’t know what will!
“The video was fully conceived down to the last detail but unfinished when Heath passed away in January of 2008. We completed the video in his honor with the support and advocacy of Isaac Brock.”, we could read on The Masses website.
If you want to make a good action download the video from iTunes. All proceeds from iTunes video downloads (in the first month of release) will go toward Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, an international non-profit, marine wildlife conservation organization committed to ending the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world's oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species.
Watch “King Rat” video now !
Did you know that Ledger also directed other music videos? Well he did! He directed Ben Harper’s amazing “Morning Yearning” video.
Watch all the videos directed by the late actor.

So incredible that in 2009 WE- still kill whales?
Not so much as WE STILL buy cosmetics, food and all sort of stuff without making sure the ingredients are whale safe…
It is also our respinsability to apply the “commercial” pressure!
