well, deacent song, but I just saw the music video and...what the hell.

was I the only one getting an insane nazi vibe, the main guy standing up on a huge pedastole pumping his fist to thousands of followers all doing the same, then the black banners fell down with their faces on them?

what the hell? tell me there was supposed to be some symbolism there or something.

based on the fact that AFI's roots are in hardcore i'm gonna go out on a limb and say the video definitely wasn't meant to be symbolic of nazi germany..... the imagery is simply meant to compliment the music.. and if you pay attention to that part of the song its got a crowd screaming 'hey' in the background.. which is the same part of the song where tehre's a crowd on the ground below davey.. and the banner with the 4 faces is their current marketing schtick.. their cd insert, the video, their myspace, their buddy icons, etc.. not that hard to figure out guys.

yea but we all know of one other guy who stood up on a tower, chanted and pumped his fist to thousands of followers all holding up flags...then a large flag rolls out with his face on...shaded the exact same way that the afi guys had their faces shaded.

hein?

A: AFI suxxx nutzzz!!11`!11!

B: Usually someone gets paid to direct a video so it's not even AFI's ideas it's what the director made.. and it is fitting for the song

i obviously see the similarites but i'm certain A.F.I. aren't trying to replicate hitler and nazi germany.. the 'crowd' is most likely symbolizing the hundreds who feel they're alone whom A.F.I. have mentioned in countless interviews.. not white supremicists. your post is one of the most pointless posts ive seen in a while and im wondering why im still responding to it?

yea fuck you too, it's a valid point that the video resembles nazi germany, and I'm not the only one who noticed, a bunch of other people noticed it too, which was my origional question.
