Check out a video that goes down the rabbit hole and behind the scenes of the awesome new Metal Hammer cover.

We don’t like to blow our own trumpet around these parts but the cover of the new issue of Metal Hammer (on sale this coming Wednesday) really is something special. To celebrate Ville Valo adopting the guise of ‘The Mad Hatter’, we’ve brought you some exclusive behind the scenes video of the shoot itself.

Thanks to photographer John McMurtrie and Hammer art editor James Isaacs for this kick-ass video.

Get all of the details about this month’s epic issue of Metal Hammer, on sale Wednesday, February 10th.
