“Thematically, ‘Wrecks’ is a song about a lost love, which deals poetically with events surrounding the passing of a close friend,” says Ben Todd, guitarist of the Seattle trio Lonesome Shack, who explore the depths of boogie and country blues on their upcoming album More Primitive, to be released May 20 on CD, digital formats and limited edition vinyl through Alive Naturalsound Records.

“The video was filmed at a back alley ditch in the middle of Phoenix,” continues Todd. “A white melting substance drizzles down the face of the shirtless creep in a state of mortal discomfort. Video filmed and edited by Chris Todd. Concept by Kristian Garrard.”

Yep.
