Canadian punk band White Lung has unveiled the music video for “Dead Weight” – directed by John Stavas and co-produced by Deap Vally’s Lindsey Troy. The clip features lead singer Mish Barber-Way head-banging her way through the track in hyper-kinetic fast forward. Like the song, it’s an all-out assault on the senses. “Dead Weight” appears on White Lung’s recently released album Paradise.

Stavas has this to say of the treatment: “‘Dead Weight’ is such a heavy hitting song and I wanted to make a video that fit its relentless and rhythmic feel. Mish might never want to headbang again. She deserves a neck rub!”
