Synopsis

A computerized voice and blocks of on-screen text introduce Orgy in a stark, futuristic environment. A man appears behind a transparent screen filled with shifting words and symbols, while the band is presented in a small glass-like enclosure. As the song intensifies, the members perform amid sharp lighting, digital overlays, metallic surfaces, and tightly framed shots. The video's claustrophobic imagery and machine-like visual design reinforce the track's industrial rock character, creating a cold, late-1990s cyberpunk atmosphere rather than a conventional narrative.

Factoids & Trivia
