Music video

edit

The music video for "Shut Me Up" was directed by Jhonen Vasquez and stars Joshua Burian-Mohr as a young man who works a monotonous retail job and goes insane shortly after attending a concert by the band, after which he is goaded by a hand puppet (operated by Vasquez) into attacking rude customers. He then experiences seizures and explodes. The video also features clips from Reefer Madness.
