"I Get It" was the second single from Vena Sera, Chevelle's fourth album, sent out to rock radio in the summer of 2007, and Loudwire later placed it fifth among the band's best songs.
The video is where it gets fun. For the first time since "Mia" back in 1999, Chevelle stayed out of their own clip, handing it to director Shawn Foster, working as Citizens of Tomorrow, and comedian Jeff Hilliard, who wrote the concept and stars as a put-upon worker pushed around by his boss, played by Paul Hughes. His revenge escalates wildly: a clown costume, photos of the boss cheating on his wife, a beating from mixed martial artist Josh Koscheck and, finally, the words "Mr. Perfect" tattooed into the boss's head.
