The Dead Deads release new music video for ‘First Tooth’

THE DEAD DEADS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track First Tooth, is taken from the Nashville-based power trio’s upcoming new album, Tell Your Girls It’s Alright, which is scheduled to be released in August this year.

“It’s just one of those songs that has a hard swing to it – like it would make you walk with more swagger if it was in your earbuds,” says drummer McQueen Dead.

“It’s a little different for us, and if you have a problem with that, please refer back to our other single off this record Deal With Me,” says guitarist MetaDead. “When I was writing the lyrics, I was thinking about all the times I’ve been told I was ‘too this’ or ‘too that’ to amount to much. I finally realized the story is in MY hands, not theirs. Nobody is gonna do the painful part for me – nobody’s gonna shake loose what’s holding me back. That’s my job. The song says, ‘Why dontcha check around and find something loose.’ Maybe that’s a lover, or a job, or a bad habit. If it’s messing you up or holding you back, you need to pull that out. No one is gonna do that for you. Life is painful – to think you can completely avoid that is silly. This song is trying to take a really stressful part of life and break it down to a fundamental level. Think about being five – grab that tooth, give it a twist, and take the first step towards growing up and owning your life.” Bassist Daisy Dead sums it up best, adding, “and nothing says swag like a horn section.”
