Information
The band were filming for the Uprising video on or around August 30th 2009.[1] At least part of the video contains a shot of the band performing on the back of an old-fashioned pickup truck. On September 17, the band announced on their Facebook profile that the video was available for streaming on this page via MTV UK.
The video features the band playing on the back of an old-fashioned pickup truck in motion, surrounded by tiny plastic figures of static people, and it is implied that the pickup is a toy. As the video progresses we see the people burning teddy bears on a bonfire, and later the bears emerge from the earth and start attacking the city. The video contains references to the banking crisis of 2008/2009 that inspired the song[2], including the famous clip of disgraced financier Bernard Madoff being shoved by a pedestrian en route to his trial.
