Music video

A music video, directed by Lee Levin, was released alongside the song.[ citation needed ]

It shows several people in different situations where someone frustrates them; like pouring coffee, walking through a just cleaned floor, and rejecting served food. After the first chorus, they all lash out in anger. During the guitar solo, all of them meet in the space where the band is performing and party, with them all having blood on their faces by the end.[ citation needed ]

Pop-punk is a rock music genre that combines elements of punk rock, pop, and power pop. It is defined for its emphasis on classic pop songcraft, as well as adolescent and anti-suburbia themes, and is distinguished from other punk-variant genres by drawing more heavily from 1960s bands such as the Beatles, the Kinks, and the Beach Boys. The genre has evolved throughout its history, absorbing elements from new wave, college rock, ska, rap, emo, and boy bands. It is sometimes considered interchangeable with power pop and skate punk.

Skate punk is a skater subculture and punk rock subgenre that developed in the 1980s. Originally a form of hardcore punk that had been closely associated with skate culture, skate punk evolved into a more melodic genre of punk rock in the 1990s. Since then, it has predominately featured fast tempos, lead guitar playing, fast drumming, and singing. Occasionally, skate punk also combines the fast tempos of hardcore punk and melodic hardcore with the catchy hooks of pop-punk.
