The heavy, pyschedelic trio that melts our faces off every time we see them have released the a video.

That’s right I’m talking about rock and roll/bluesy favorites People’s Blues of Richmond. PBR released a the full music video for their latest single, “Gone, Gone, Gone.” The band gave us a little sneak peek of the video, which was recorded by Mark Neill, producer of The Black Keys, back in June.

Crave premiered the video for PBR last night and I must say, the visuals back up the amazing rock your face off single. Its a huge, chaotic ride taking the guys on a whirlwind of strange scenarios throughout the video.

“Gone, Gone, Gone” which was made with production company Barking Iron, combines the weirdness of a Jack White or the White Stripes, the blues-rock of The Black Keys, but stays true to the gritty rawness of their RVA roots.

It’s hypotnotizes with spirals swirling behind the band as they play. The pounding of Neko’s drums gets your heart pumping while the lyrics of Tim Beavers conjures up blips of wild nights spent with a sultry, seductive someone that slipped away.
