Thumbstopper: South Central duo Paris Texas rage in ‘HEAVY METAL’

Words: Dylan Murphy

Stop scrolling – Thumbstopper is the must listen to song of the day. Today Los Angeles pairing Paris Texas are taken hostage in their video for ‘HEAVY METAL’.

LA duo Paris Taxis are off to a flying start with their debut song and video ‘HEAVY METAL’.

Channelling the same visceral energy as the likes of America’s resident rager JPEGMAFIA and the same genre-agnostic approach as fellow west coast natives AG Club, the duo have shared the cinematic visuals after teasing their arrival on socials this week.

Directed by ILLIMITEWORLD, the video is a grisly introduction to Paris Texas and marks their status as serious contenders in the LA creative scene.

Watch the video for ‘HEAVY METAL‘ below:
