Music video

Drummer Dafydd Ieuan has said of the video:

cquote|We wanted to get Yetis heads banging in the video. That was the brief. I don't know if it was fun. It was fun after watching it after, but it was like hard work at the time because they weigh a ton and they're incredibly hot and you can only do two takes at the time or you'd die!cite web
