Watch “(One Less Thing) Before I Die” Premiere on Stereogum

Order Darkness Rains on LP/CD/CAS/Digital out October 5th. 

Watch Death Valley Girls’ video for “(One Less Thing) Before I Die” featuring footage the band shot of Mad Mike Hughes on his three attempts to launch his home made, steam-powered rocket ship out in the Nevada desert.

The video premiered recently on Stereogum and is the final preview to their upcoming third album Darkness Rains that’s out Oct. 5th on Suicide Squeeze Records!

“We heard of this guy that wanted to shoot himself into the sky in a home made, steam-powered rocket ship to prove that the Earth was flat. Kansas Bowling asked us if we wanted to go film the launch. At first we thought we didn’t care at all about flat earthers, or the flat earth theory, but then we met Mad Mike Hughes. Mad Mike is an amateur rocket scientist, lawyer, limo driver, dare devil, Guinness Book world record alum, conspiracy theorist, and is now running for governor of the state of Nevada. After going to three launches in the desert – two attempted, and one successful – we learned a lot. While we don’t agree with his politics at all, we are glad we met him, and that we learned one more thing before we die.” – Bonnie Bloomgarden of Death Valley Girls

DVG would like to ensure that they are not flat earthers OR people that agree with Mad Mike’s political views.
