Backwoods Payback’s “Mr. Snowflake” is Made of Meat

Directed by John Keefer, I’m not sure if the new video from Pennsylvanian four-piece Backwoods Payback is so much reminding us that we are what we eat as much as it’s reminding us never to trust a square hamburger. Either way, it’s a valuable lesson, and one well conveyed by the clip for “Mr. Snowflake” from the band’s 2011 full-length, Momantha (review here). One can’t help but be reminded as well of the potential dangers of hormone-injected beef as a giant hamburger hypnotizes and devours bassist Jessica Baker. Truly this surpasses anything “Kony 2012” did in terms of spreading higher consciousness.

Dig it below, followed by some info regarding upcoming shows with Supermachine:

Purveyors of the riff Backwoods Payback have unleashed their first video for the masses. The geniuses behind 51 Deep decided to take a break from dominating funnyordie.com and put their twisted vision down on film for the sane world to see. Like a bad acid trip, this one should stick with you and pop up in the places you least expect it, always leaving the question, “Are you what you eat?”

Backwoods Payback will return to New England for the first time in three years to share the stage with besties and newest labelmates Supermachine (featuring Jay and Jarvis from Scissorfight)!
