The band plays amid metallic structures, flashing lights, and imagery of women in silver costumes who interact with the musicians. The video presents Orgy as a stylized cyber-industrial act, emphasizing their heavily transformed version of New Order's song through machinery, artificial bodies, and a cold science-fiction atmosphere.
