Progressive metal icons Dream Theater recently put out the call for fans to send in their videos for the band's song "Lost Not Forgotten," off their latest album, A Dramatic Turn of Events.
Yesterday, the band announced the winning video, which you can view below.
"First of all we'd like to say thank you and congratulations to all of you who participated in the contest," said the band in an official statement. "We were so inspired to see such creative and artistic entries, and choosing a winner was not an easy task! We are happy to announce that the winning video comes from Byunghoon Lee from South Korea!
"The visual elements and effects as well as the way it was carefully synchronized so accurately with the music made this one stand out to all of us.
