Ontario’s rock ‘n’ roll torchbearers, The Dirty Nil, have shared a new music video for their track “The Light, The Void and Everything.” Taken from their most recent album, Free Rein to Passions (May 26th, 2023 via Dine Alone Records), the track has been paired with a visual treatment that pays homage to David Lynch’s film Blue Velvet.
Featuring a cameo from Wade MacNeil of Alexisonfire, Gallows, and Dooms Children, the video is out now!
Frontman Luke Bentham shares,
“For years, we’ve kicked around this treatment, waiting for the perfect song to apply it to. When we heard the playback of “The Light, The Void and Everything,” it was clear that the opportunity had come. In the execution, (producer/director/editor) Wyatt Clough’s attention to detail was stunning. I’ll never forget walking into that warehouse and seeing the fully constructed replica of the apartment from Blue Velvet. Wade was perfect in the role of Frank and it was a pleasure to watch him play the villain. Finally, a shoutout to our incredible friends Steph Montani, Levi Kertesz, and Dave Tyson for rounding out our cast. Everyone owes it to themselves to croon into a lightbulb, at least once in their life.”
