(Here's A War)" video.Birchall said of the "Venom" clip: "Working with BULLET is a real pleasure. "It is important for me to connect with the artist, their music and establish trust creatively. "After our first video, I was very keen to continue the journey of the characters we established in taking the narrative in a fresh direction. The band and management were behind this 100 percent. We discussed taking a more cerebral tone with a darker subtext. "Maeve O Connell (DOP) and myself wanted to take the cinematography in a different direction stylistically and the cast were all very keen to continue the story and journey we had started together.It really is a great feeling when the plans comes together, the crew across the board were all amazing with special mention to Jamie Whymark (Kode Media) for fighting to keep the vision on track. "We hope this video takes people back to enjoy part 1 ['You Want A Battle? (Here's A War)'] again and of course I left room for a finale!"BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE will release a new digital EP, "Live From Kingston", on October 16 via Google Play.
