[edit] Music Video
The music video shows the members of Ladytron hiking through a mountain range, facing various hazards such as two-legged creatures attemptng to attack them, and having frosty wind blown at them by faces in the mountains (which are the members of Ladytron, with makeup added to them to make their skin look covered with snow and ice).
[edit] Reception

It's as catchy as hell too, with that relentless chorus effortlessly burying its way into the listener's brain."
