Los Angeles' traditional metal act WHITE WIZZARD are shooting a brand new video for "Over the Top", the title-track from the band's upcoming debut full-length album.
WHITE WIZZARD will be trading their axes for guns as the five band members turn into rugged outlaws and bring true heavy metal to the wild west. Far from the typical "guys grimacing in a warehouse" metal videos that have become the norm, "Over the Top" will be a lighthearted video which promises to entertain with a fun story line.
The video for "Over the Top" is being shot with Dave Vorhes, who previously directed WHITE WIZZARD's first music video for the track "High Speed GTO". Fans of the first video will instantly recognise "Over the Top" as a sequel to the "High Speed GTO" video, with the same classic car, an evil sorcerer and the legendary White Wizzard himself set to make an appearance.

The OVER THE TOP album was recorded with producer Ralph Patlan (MEGADETH, UFO, MICHAEL SCHENKER) and is due to be released in February, 2010.
WHITE WIZZARD are set to headline Earache Records' free 2009 Xmas Party this Thursday, 17th December at the Purple Turtle in London, UK. The event will be the band's first ever show in the UK and to celebrate, the band will be giving out limited edition copies of their debut 7" vinyl "Over the Top" single.
