Music video

The music video appears to be loosely based on the film The Exorcist , and begins with the band arriving at a bishop's place. Dero receives information from him, and along with Crap and Flux, goes to a house where a girl who seems to be possessed awaits. The band attempts to carry out an exorcisms on her, and it appears to have worked, but the video ends with a surprising reversal - Dero wakes up stripped and bound to a bed, in the same room with the girl.
