One thing I really like about the video for Duality is there's a pretty good visual for the influence music can have. At one point in the video, all the kids are just ROCKING when Corey (the lead singer for those that don't know) raises his hand. They all just stop. That's when the lyrics "All I have is insane" kick in. The kids put on a pretty good display of seething(?) until the crescendo hits then BAM, right back to rocking out until the song ends.
