Music video
In June 2011, Linkin Park released the music video for "Iridescent". It is based on the short story "The Country of the Blind" by H.G. Wells, but set in a post-apocalyptic future. It features Mike Shinoda playing the part of the one-eyed king, singing to a snake (named Trevor) coiled around him, and Chester Bennington singing. The video has various kinds of random imagery edited into it, such as references to The Last Supper and Dark of the Moon. Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Sentinel Prime, Megatron, Shockwave, Driller and Decepticon soldiers appear courtesy of digitally altered clips from the film.
