Rise Against - Hero Of War (Official Video)

Music video by Rise Against performing Hero Of War. A music video was made for the song, although it wasn’t released as a single from the album, and thus the song was mistaken to be the album’s third single. The music video was released on May 20, 2009, on the band’s Myspace page. The video fades between lead singer Tim McIlrath sitting and singing the song while playing the acoustic guitar, and shots of soldiers in war. Along these are clips of a visibly distressed soldier. The video ends with the soldier walking down a street, bare-chested, with paint on his face, while sirens go off in the background, implying he had descended into violence due to PTSD while in normal society. #RiseAgainst #HeroOfWar #Vevo
