Music video

A music video was directed by Marc Webb and filmed at a warehouse in Los Angeles in May 2003. The videoclip was released in June 2003

It features the band performing in suits in front of a moshing crowd, executing

hardcore dancing style punch-and-kick moves. Members of the crowd are shown applying athletic tape and straight edge-culture gloves on their hands before the gig. The band members are shown preparing for the show as well. Havok drops the mic and walks off stage at the end of the video. The song used while the crowd is moshing was a song by the band Hatebreed
