   Four Kicks is a Conceptual video,
    although the lyrics do include violence,
    the video isn’t a story. Lyrics like “And the
    red mans fire in his eye” and “I’ll be lovin’
    him under my shoe” has elements of
    anger and violence. So there is a
    relationship between lyrics and visuals.
   During pauses between sentences from the
    band, people in a dark room with red
    flashing lights begin to aggressively fight
    with each other, the band situated in the
    middle of the room as they play the song.
    During the sentences and the chorus, The
    room turns white and the people fighting
    freeze in their positions. Some of them are
    about to do something, like one person is
    about to be hit in the face with a fire
    extinguisher. Others have already been it,
    like a girl has been hit over the head with a
    bench.
