South Park creators MATT STONE and TREY PARKER are to direct the video for a forthcoming WEEN single.
Shooting is due to take place in LA within the next of couple of weeks for the promo to ‘Even If You Don’t’, slated to be the second single release from their album ‘White Pepper’. The video will feature Ween duo Dean and Gene, and but no South Park-style animation.
It is not the first time Stone and Parker – self-confessed Ween fans – have worked with the band. They asked Ween to write a track for their ‘Orgasmo’ film project. The song ‘Love’ was the result. Dean and Gene also recorded recorded voiceovers for the Ween appearance in the Chef Aid episode of South Park.
Meanwhile, Ween return to the UK this summer for their first British performances in two years. The band have two festival dates plus their own headline show billed ‘An Evening With Ween’: Carling Weekend Festival, Reading (August 25) Carling Weekend Festival, Leeds (28) London Astoria (September 7)
