We’re pleased to bring you the premiere of Better Than Never‘s new music video for their song “Dead Weight” (watch below). The track is taken from the band’s latest album Homemade Hero, available now through Fox Records.
The band comments on the song: “‘Dead Weight’ is all about those darker days when you just feel trapped in a shell you can’t escape, but yet you know that if you keep pushing, you’ll come through feeling better. It’s a performance video in a location we liked, we didn’t have any budget for production on it so we just filmed it all ourselves with our own gear!”

Built upon an easycore inspired foundation of meaty guitars and grooves, Better Than Never pepper their sound with a layered dual vocal approach reminiscent of Four Year Strong and vintage Taking Back Sunday. Formed in 2013, Better Than Never are comprised by vocalist James Harris, guitarist/vocalist Will Keating, guitarists Max Peniket and Jim Allsop, bassist Jake Aitman and drummer Kane McIntosh. Yes, that’s three guitarists. “The reason we have 3 guitarists is because we wanted our friend Will in the band but there was no space, but we’re nice guys so we made it work,” comments James Harris.
