Music video

edit

The animated video for "The Shouty Track", produced by Airside, consists of two cartoon-like characters being drawn by an unseen hand, who then begin to head-bang to the beat of the music. Other elements include rapid montages of images related to the headbangers' lives such as barbecue and getting tattoos, but foremost, gratuitous violence – notably both the perpetrators and victims remain mostly unfazed by the punches exchanged.

The video is included on the DVD release of '64–'95, along with animated videos for the other tracks.
