Video: Heavy Trash: "Way Out"
More astronauts! The latest video from Jon Spencer's Heavy Trash project finds the kitschy bluesman donning a cheesy silver spacesuit and stomping around sandy interstellar terrains. The hammering beat to "Way Out", from last year's Going Way Out with Heavy Trash, provides an oddly psychedelic cadence for some vintage sci-fi visuals. Add a few Martian go-go dancers and Spencer's stuttering rockabilly delivery of lines like "Slip through the airlock/ Go on and get free," and the whole thing comes off as an even lower-budget tribute to The American Astronaut.
