Director/producer Ian McFarland shared, "When it comes down to it, [co-director] Mike [Pecci] and I don't pump out videos at the same rate that other directors do, and it is because we just don't want to put out crap. We take pride in every video we do and love to do videos that not only the bands are proud of, but that we are proud of as well."
"Warriors" was released in North America on November 6, 2007 via Nuclear Blast Records.
