[edit] Music video

The music video for "Silver and Cold" was directed by John Hillcoat[2] and shot in Prague, Czech Republic.[3] The band came up with the concept for the video and director Hillcoat developed it.[3] It shows band members Jade Puget, Adam Carson, and Hunter Burgan rushing to stop the vocalist Davey Havok from committing suicide by jumping off a bridge, but as they reach him, they die in a horrific car crash. Havok walks away unharmed, although it is implied he is a ghost.
