Alexisonfire shared the new video for “Familiar Drugs” and announced who will be joining them on tour. They partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket sold will be donated to Indspireto build a brighter future for Indigenous students.
“Everythingcametogetherreallyfast,” says Wade MacNeil. “Maxxis flew into Toronto with a crew of 4 people, found the plainest room he could and shot us on VHS tape and cellphones in a day. We were all really drawn to the vibe of old punk documentaries and videos from the 70's and 80's. We asked for a lo fi, no bullshit performance video and that’s what he delivered.”
SaysMichaelMaxxis, aboutthevideo "I thought it would be cool to put a very normal woman in this tight space with Alexisonfire performing. She represents the withdrawn and disinterested sales force that is out there moving product to make a buck - regardless of what it is. She doesn't give a shit about this band or their music - maybe she even thinks it's stupid. There's no passion there, so she stands miserably in the background. A nice metaphor for life I think."
