Rock/Metal music video research 3

This is an example of an animated rock/metal music video.
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2H4l9RpkwM
This is the music video to the song " Breaking the habit" by Linkin Park.

This music video has an animated narrative story line for most of the music video which then includes animated versions of the band members appearing at the end of the video
This music video fits the codes and conventions of rock/metal music in many ways. Firstly the song title “Breaking the habit” fits another common stereotype that all rock/metal bands or musicians have drug habits. Secondly in the video we see police tape with Japanese writing which reflects the popularity of rock/metal music in Japan.
