But first, here’s Clark, who’s temporarily returned from storming the gates of hell to tell us about the clip.

“The video was shot over two days on Whidbey Island, which is about an hour north of Seattle, and was directed by Zach Merck [who also worked on the band’s video for ‘Fading Away,’” Clark tells Headbangers Ball Blog. “The weather was absolutely freezing, but the overall experience was amazing.” click “read more” to hear more from Clark and watch the video.

Since many of Demon Hunter’s past videos have been performance-based, the band wanted to add more narrative elements into the mix. “We wanted to do something more organicand artistic,” Clark says. “We really wanted to strip down the performance aspect in this video and let the story line take precedence. This song is one of the mellowest songs we’ve recorded, and conveying an emotional aspect through the video was very important to us. We’re extremely pleased with how it turned out.”
