Music video

---

The video has the band in a haunted house. They are playing in a dimly lit room with an unnerving picture behind the band. To the viewer's left of the room is a dark kitchen with a bound and writhing figure. To the right is what appears to be a laboratory with a strange creature. Later in the song, the creature releases insects, probably locusts, while the creepy picture and the left wall bulge. Also, there is a moving statue.

The music video was co-directed by Nathan "Karma" Cox and LP's turntablist Joseph Hahn (which have also directed the ones for Points Of Authority and In The End).

Trivia

---

• The picture behind the band is a modified version of the picture on the band's Xero Demo Cassette.
