[edit] Music video

The music video for "Guilty" was shot in Los Angeles 2004. According to the band, it is the darkest video they have ever made. The band are performing in a gloomy dark room where they sing about 'feeling guilty' and 'empty' etc. A photographer takes numerous pictures of different people and the band, but during the photographs' development something goes wrong. The photographs turn into representations of the people's anguish, fear and pain towards different aspects of life.
