Music video

[edit]

City of Fire posted the video of the song "Bad Motivator" which was included on the album "Trial Through Fire". The video was filmed in Toronto, Canada, under the direction of Cody Calahan.

Bell said:[1]

"The video was created through the program MuchMusic in Canada — it is Canada's MTV. Every year, they give grants to new bands to make a video. We applied and got the grant. The video was made through all Canadian videographers, directors etc... It was the first time I met Cody Calahan, and I look forward to working with him again. He is very ambitious and I like his creative ideas."
