Music video

The video opens with an Emergency Alert System message and then shows various people in a single neighborhood frantically trying to pack up a car and evade a cataclysmic event, only to be stopped by a traffic jam. In the end of the video, a mysterious cosmic event occurs causing all people from the neighborhood to vanish without a trace. The plot of the video is interspliced with footage of Finch performing in a living room.

Reception

"Bitemarks and Bloodstains" was met with an average to negative reception by music critics. Writing for AbsolutePunk, Scott Weber said the song, "doesn't even sound like new Finch. It's completely boring and predictable. The build-up, while intended to be dramatic, is murdered by the chorus being repeated over and over again." Writing for Sputnikmusic, Ryan Flatley said, "Songs such as 'A Piece of Mind,' 'Brother Bleed Brother,' and 'Bitemarks and Bloodstains' are all good songs, just nothing blares out in me that makes it individually great."
