American rock band Mayday Parade has released a video for 'It's Hard To Be Religious When Certain People Are Never Incinerated By Bolts Of Lightning”. The song is described as 'angrier' than anything they have written before. With such an emotion-filled track, the video had to include just as much feeling and rebellion. Directed by Miguel Barbosa, the video portrays a cult-like group partaking in a ritual. A sense of optimism is introduced at the end when two women in love flee the group and embrace who they are as a couple.
