New Orleans trio Woozy have premiered a video for ‘Venom’ over at Stereogum. It is taken from the bands debut album ‘Blistered’, which was released last year via Community Records.
“With the video for “Venom” we wanted to explore a perspective that is untold within the song’s lyrics,” said Woozy vocalist/guitarist John St. Cyr. “The song itself condemns the kind of person who ‘poisons’ their community with negativity, lies and gossip. The video attempts to empathise with this person, exploring their emotional turmoil and internal conflict. PEARS frontman Zach Quinn is transformed from an everyday scenester into a basement-dwelling hobgoblin; the real-world representation of our album Blistered’s gremlin cover. He undergoes a visceral struggle before succumbing to his own literal venom and vitriol, his toxic hidden self made material in the form of maple flavour black goop.”
