The video could have been handled a tad better with a bigger budget, which is the only thing making it feel cheap.
Call me crazy, but this video's message kinda vindicates D'arcy as the whole meaning of the video seems to be shitting on this reunion and the true reasoning behind it. It's not Billy's bullshit love of the original band and wanting to be friends again and perform together. This video pretty much says his fans forced him into reforming the band because they don't care about his solo work so it's all he could do. In the end it really is all about the money and not about healing with his bandmates and looking back on and appreciating their legacy. It's "Well, this is all I have left. No one cares about me and what I do now. So I might as well do this reunion and make money on the old."
Just look at his outfit, it's the black and silver like his Zero era motif. If you look at the dog collar, it's a silver "0." Like this image I built is now strangling me and controling me and he tries to break free of it. Only to visit a mean and evil freakish world that looks at him with pity and disgust, like he is the freak and not them. Only for him to run to the safety of his collar in the end.
Seriously, this video ain't doing the band or this reunion any favors. It comes off as a fuck you to fans in a way and just shines a light on the true nature of this reunion.
