Sweet video.

[I am all talk]

This is when I hate using a sidekick

[Pascal DeMaria]

I dont want to sound like an asshole because CS is one of my favorite bands ever, but this video totally looks like it was a bad student film. The story is there, but its not coherent at all. Whats with the guy writing at the beginning? He uses hard drugs to cure his writers block? Weiiird. It had such great potential, especially with all the hype about it being like Requiem for a Dream. I can make a film with drugs in it and some quick cuts...does that mean its like requiem? The performance shots are way cool, my gripe is with the story.

It is nice however, to finally see a video from them. Im sure the next one will be better.

The link isn't working for me, BOB SAGET!!!

[HeartLikeAGun27]

yeah, i'm not too thrilled with this one.

[Pascal DeMaria]

On a second and third viewing I guess I can see how the RfaD influences are in there. Especially with the Snorri-cam POV stuff. The band probably didnt have much control over the editing in the video, it could have been done better. I hate being negative, Im always scared it would get back to the band or something. Watch this video more than once, it needs a couple viewings to see how good it is.

[dyingurthhorizo]

Good band video, horrible story video...it feels disconnected

[shtjames]

i feel like the editing doesnt excentuate whats going on in the song.

[booyah.achieved]

any insight onto what type of drug he's buying?

all I can say is it sucks he decided to take the money over that girl. hottie.

it's funny you say that, because right after the video was finished anthony was like "don't ever give up control of your videos etc..."

She's definitely a cutie. Ant- hook me up.

[anthony_jr]

i started listening to juturna again this past week & this definitely puts the icing on the cake.

[Roboman]

Mmm...panties...

And yeah, that was pretty weird. In the end they just sort of...go to sleep.

we also have posted the vid in different formats from a while here: http://punkrockvids.com/index.php?mod=videos&subid=official&vid_id=528

[bleed me bleu]

requim for a dream anyone?

[emerica171]

the video fails the song miserably

[ClassActionRecs]

Is this the same set for that 311 video?

[dangets]

most narrative-style music videos end up being stupid IMO. they could have done much better.

[NoPenguinsInPA]

kicks the shit out of what was supposed to be this video (posted in march).

[frankpistol]

sometimes bands just shouldnt do music videos
personally i like the band
but this video to say the least was a let down

[gracelikelions]

the ending is way cheesy.

[calciumwaste]

this video is old news but whatever. i don't like the plot much, it has potential but it could be much better. i like the performance scenes, especially Anthony's dancing.

this was my favorite song on Juturna at first, but i am starting to like it less and less compared to some of the other stuff that is on there. and seeing as the album has been out for a long time, i wish that they would have made a video for another single instead.

yeah, i talked to him in detroit about the video and he said he overall ended up hating it because the studio chopped up his entire concept of the video.
