Weirds release new music video for ‘Valley of Vision’
Leeds based psychedelic grunge outfit WEIRDS have released a brand new music video!
The new music video, for the track Valley of Vision, is taken from the band’s upcoming debut record which is set for release later this year. Speaking about the track, vocalist Aidan Razzall says, “Valley of Vision was one of the first songs we wrote for the record. We wanted to create a pop song, and make it big, heavy and mysterious. We try to craft our songs in simple structures, and it came together pretty much in one night in our basement. The lyrics were inspired by a puritan prayer from a book of medieval Latin lyrics that I carry with me pretty much at all times, and we were fixated on the title. We’re big fans of expansive, totemic titles and Valley of Vision summed up the feeling of the song, it has a mythical symmetry to it. The song is about family, violence and religion, and the way these all seep into each other, so the lines become blurred. We wanted to it to be the flag-bearer at the front of the fucked up procession that is our album. The song is our crest of intent, us taking aim and limbering up – we’ve got you in our sights.”
