Guitarist Chris Howorth says, "we just wanted to come out with a really heavy metal track to show everybody that In This Moment is back in metal and we’re embracing that part of ourselves." It contains screaming by lead vocalist Maria Brink throughout the song with no clean vocals, a first for the band. Music video. On May 1, 2010 , the band posted a flyer on their Twitter and Myspace asking their Los Angeles area fans to come out in full cowboy costume for the music video. The video was directed by David Brodsky and debuted on Revolver TV June 23. Brink describes the song and video shoot: "It's kind of a western ranch feel video for sure. I dressed up as a cowgirl and have these cowgirls in the video with me. We had so much fun doing it. It's just, I think it's one of the heaviest songs and we really love it, and its  just a fun, awesome, summertime kick ass song." Personnel. In This Moment
