This article contains additional information about the band Alexisonfire.

All the band's videos, except "This Could Be Anywhere In The World" and "Boiled Frogs" were directed by Marc Ricciardelli.

"Pulmonary Archery"

Pulmonary Archery was the first music video from Alexisonfire, released in 2002. For their debut video for the song, "Pulmonary Archery", the band were given a choice: to have a video that was simply performance but looked good production-wise or a complex plotted video that didn't look as good. The band chose the performance video, which won Best Video at the 2004 Canadian Independent Music Awards.

"Counterparts And Number Them"

The second music video from the band's debut album was released in 2003. Marc Ricciardelli, the director, states he wishes to create videos that are unusual and that people will not expect for this type of band. "Counterparts And Number Them", for example shows the band, all wearing baby pink shirts, performing in a park on a sunny day while children run around playing.

"Waterwings (And Other Poolside Fashion Faux Pas)"

Alexisonfire's third music video, "Waterwings (And Other Poolside Fashion Faux Pas)", shows each member of the band in separate street gangs who go on to show off their best dance moves as they duke it out in an old fashioned dance-off competition. Dallas is in 'The Daggers', George is in 'The Lower Eastside Splatter Punks', Jesse is in 'The Roller Girls', Wade is in 'The Geraghtys' and Chris is in 'The Butterscotch Boys'. The introduction, by George, to the dance off is spoken in Latin. Friends of the band star in the video including members of Moneen.

"Accidents"

The first music video from the album Watch Out! first aired on December 18, 2004. "Accidents" was more serious than their previous videos, showing the band tearing through Toronto as paramedics (except for Jesse Ingelevics, who was the injured man that was knocked off his bike and the band were rushing to save).

"No Transitory"

Alexisonfire's second music video from Watch Out! first aired in February 2005.
The video is shot entirely in black and white. It features the band playing in a room with theatre backdrops/scenery, including a shop lined street and a woodland. The main focus of the video is the bands performance, using interesting camera angles and artistic shots.

"Hey, It's Your Funeral Mama"

The third music video from Watch Out! first aired in September 2005. "Hey, It's Your Funeral Mama" sees the band 'auditioning' replacements for themselves so as to avoid touring the world. Each new 'member' is played by friends of the band. In the video, the black "Wade" wearing the football jersey is Dallas Green's brother-in-law, Jay<ref>Various pictures by Jordin Green (Dallas Green's Sister), in which Jay, or the black "Wade", has a caption depicting him as Jordin's husband; viewable here</ref>. One of the Georges is played by Kenny Bridges from Moneen, one of the Ratbeards is played by Moneen drummer Peter Krpan, one of the Dallases is played by Liam Cormier of the Cancer Bats and one of the Chris's is played by Brent Jackson of the Brampton based indie rock band The Junction. This video also sees the band poking fun at themselves and any particular quirks they may have. For example, Dallas is teaching future Dallas' how to swish their hair properly - just like he does and Wade measures all the Wades' sideburns to make sure they are the right size.

"Passing Out In America/Accidents Are On Purpose"

Their video for "Passing Out In America/Accidents Are On Purpose" is a video shared with Moneen from The Switcheroo Series: Alexisonfire vs. Moneen. It employs a split screen technique with both bands' videos happening at the same time and interacting with each other. It first aired in February 2006.

"This Could Be Anywhere In The World"

Their first video from Crisis, "This Could Be Anywhere In The World", is directed by Chris Sargent and Steve Mottershead and is the band's first video not directed by Marc Ricciardelli. The atmosphere and feel of the video is far more serious than previous videos and is completely performanced based - the band plays while surrounded by water, rain, fire and wind.

"Boiled Frogs"

Their second video from Crisis. The video is the second directed and photographed by Chris Sargent. All five members of the band are portrayed in an intertwining story of what amounts to a metaphor of life and career. Shot on seven locations over two days the epic video contains no performance.

"Rough Hands"

This will be their 3rd video from Crisis, and 10th overall. It was announced on April 5th, 2007 on the VideoFact website, that Alexisonfire had received a grant to shoot a video for this song. Premiered June 27 2007 on M.O.D. on Muchmusic. Marc Ricciardelli returned to directed the video.
