Our Lady Peace – “Heavyweight” Video

“Heavyweight” is off the band’s eighth studio album, Curve, out April 17th in the U.S. Commenting on “Heavyweight,” which was shot in a small town outside of Toronto called Bowmanville, Raine says, “The video gods were with us and director Christopher Mills. Chris stumbled upon an old abandoned home that served as a real-life fight club run by an ex-pro boxer. The home was filled with old boxing paraphernalia and the metaphors fit the song perfectly. The fact that we got to blow the house up works on so many levels.”

A photo of Canadian heavyweight boxer George Chuvalo as a young man on the cover of Curve brings out the album’s pugilistic theme.
