This is probably one of my favorite metal music videos in awhile.

I really like the way they end it. It is unexpectedly epic.

Coolest part is when the freaky lady cuts the thread. The riff fits his face well haha. About 3/4ths in.

Bummer they cut it short, I hear they do that live too, but still amazing. I have a
feeling those slave creatures are symbolic of us Americans...This Message Edited On 05.15.08

I just don't like such videos
more of them and they destroy my good opinion about the band.

one of the gayest videos i've seen in a long time, i'm glad the album is nowhere near as bad as that video.

Good video but their best will always be the video for New Millenium Cyanide Christ...it's just so awesome and the solo is amazingly awesome.

yeah, that was a pretty good video!
i just wish i knew what it means... i can tell the main guy gets coverted to one of those wierd gollum-like things, and that the ObZen cover guy is supposed to be the God/Overseer of it all... but what does it mean??

The way I see it is: ObZen guy= media/stimulus overload particularly in America. By
taking it all in and becoming obsessed with all these programs and things where we
are entertained by the suffering of others we are enslaved-> "gollum-like things."
Kind of reminds me of the lyrical concept behind Vicarious. This is of course only one
interpretation so feel free to disagree : )

-Oh yea and the cut thread happening when he is chained around his neck probably
has something to do with him losing his humanity/individuality/etc.This Message Edited On 05.15.08

TheDistantFuture is probably close to what they are trying to convey as they usually have cwazy concepts like that. Or, at least cwazy symbolism.This Message Edited On 05.15.08

I'm still partial to my favorite video still being "Rational Gaze." The editing is amazing and the video fits their music to a tee.

@the wizard
I think the video was trying to hard to be "crazy" with the bugs and flashing images and shit and i thought the obzen dude looked extremely cheesy. they also did not show the band at all that i can remember.

Eh...my feelings on the video are mixed...I'm pissed they cut out the portion after the slow bit. That's one of my favorite parts...the transition just punches right in the face EVERY TIME. I literally jump a little biut listening to it. It's sorta typical for a metal video, but the symbolism is pretty cool, so it's not totally bad. I dunno. I like the creature on the chain concept...and where he's yelling at it.

From that standpoint Rattlehead, your opinion is respected by me ;)!
