Band Member Iain Cook Has Said Of The Song Whenever We Work On A New Song It's Of Paramount Importance That We Find The Right Balance Between The Various Elements In The Track And Instrumentation. Whether It's The Tension Between Brighter Melodies And Darker Lyrics Or Sparking Synths And Gritty Production It’s A Signature Of What We Do. We Worked Hard To Get The Right Combination Of Those Things For Empty Threat And In The End We Managed To Find The Sweet Spot That Captures The Essence Of Chvrches. The Music Video For "Empty Threat" Was Filmed At Rapids Water Park In Riviera Beach Florida With Austin Peters Directing. Peters Shot On 16 Mm Film Citing An Emotional Quality Of Film That He Feels Digital Media Lacks. According To Peters The Band Weren't Included In The Music Video In Part Because They Weren't Particularly Interested In Being In It But Also Because The Premise Of The Video Didn't Really Justify Including The Band Had The Band Been A Group Of High School Goths He Said Their Presence Would Have Contributed Greatly To The Video And Its Atmosphere. Regardless Peters Felt The Band Were Extremely Supportive Of The Idea And Were A Pleasure To Work With. 4

Band member Iain Cook has said of the song:
Whenever we work on a new song, it's of paramount importance that we find the right balance between the various elements in the track and instrumentation. Whether it's the tension between brighter melodies and darker lyrics, or sparking synths and gritty production, it’s a signature of what we do. We worked hard to get the right combination of those things for Empty Threat, and in the end we managed to find the sweet spot that captures the essence of Chvrches.
The music video for "Empty Threat" was filmed at Rapids Water Park in Riviera Beach, Florida, with Austin Peters directing. Peters shot on 16 mm film, citing an emotional quality of film that he feels digital media lacks. According to Peters, the band weren't included in the music video in part because they weren't particularly interested in being in it, but also because the premise of the video didn't really justify including the band; had the band been a group of high school goths, he said, their presence would have contributed greatly to the video and its atmosphere. Regardless, Peters felt the band were extremely supportive of the idea and were a pleasure to work with.[4] Read more on Last.fm.
