Earlier this year, Phil Anselmo [Pantera, Down, Superjoint, etc.] and horror icon Bill Moseley [‘House of 1000 Corpses,’ ‘The Devil’s Rejects,’ ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2’] teamed up to form the musical project Bill & Phil. Today, the duo has partnered up with Revolver to premiere the official music video for the song “Dirty Eye,” which stars Bill & Phil marionettes! The song is taken from their debut album, ‘Songs of Darkness and Despair,’ which is out now via Housecore Records. The clip, which is directed by Ryan Oliver of Deathblow Productions, can be seen below.
“As a three-year alumni of Housecore Horror Fest, it was a special honor to make a video for Bill & Phil,” commented Oliver. “My crew and I had a lot of fun making this bizarre puppet show over the past winter/spring. This opportunity came right on the heels of our last Housecore video for Child Bite’s ‘Vermin Mentality’, though different, I think they complement each other quite well. Once again, we were trusted to do what we wanted creatively and in the end it seemed best to follow Bill Moseley’s lyrical cues and try to interpret them in an entertaining fashion. We’re pretty pleased with the turnout and hope it lives up to the uniquely wild music on this record.”
Anselmo added that the video is “very, very, very, very, very, very interesting!”
Bill Moseley explained: “This video, down & dirty, comes with no strings attached…well, except for the puppets. I can’t speak for Phil, but frankly I’ve never looked better!”
