The main focus of the camera was on the Lead singer and his tattoos, the crowd, guitars and other instruments. There was a range of speed changes for the mosh pit, mix of hand held cameras, repetitiveness like the song and no set changes. based as a Performance Video and how gigs work and are done on the road with the band. A documentary rather that a big budget music video it was crewed by 8 camera men which was the bands idea.
