The black-and-white clip sees Dando walking down an endless sidewalk as he's passed by a series of objects, people, and landscapes, with his bandmates occasionally joining. 'It's never been so painless making a video,' Dando said of the clip. 'Everyone working was really great. The endless sidewalk goes really well with the song.'
'Deep End' is also backed by a cover of Townes Van Zandt's 'Sad Cinderella,' which features backing vocals from Nashville artist Erin Rae. Both tracks will appear on a limited edition 12″ vinyl single that arrives on June 13 via Fire Records.
The A-side is set to appear on Love Chant, which will arrive as the band's first album of new material since 2006. The record will reportedly release in fall, though specific details are expected to arrive in the coming months.
The Lemonheads first formed in Boston in 1986, with a series of independent albums arriving via Taang! before the group signed to Atlantic for 1990's Lovey.
Working with Morgan while in Australia, The Lemonheads found their commercial breakthrough with 1992's It's a Shame About Ray, which reached No. 68 on the Billboard 200. Its success was bolstered by a cover of Simon & Garfunkel's 'Mrs. Robinson,' and helped the group achieve their commercial peak with 1993's Come on Feel the Lemonheads, which peaked at No. 56.
The Lemonheads initially dissolved in 1997, though Dando reactivated the group in 2005, with a self-titled record arriving the following year. Since then, two cover albums have been released, with Varshons and Varshons 2 being issued in 2009 and 2019, respectively.

Fans Choose Mariah The Scientist & Kali Uchis' ‘Is It a Crime' as This Week's Favorite New Music
'Is It a Crime,' the new duet from Mariah The Scientist and Kali Uchis, tops this week's fan-voted music poll. Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (Aug. 1) on Billboard, choosing the pair's fresh collaboration as their favorite new release of the past week. More from Billboard Jelly Roll Brings Grit & Heart to In-Ring Debut at WWE SummerSlam 2025 Jerry Garcia Has Childhood Street Named for Him in San Francisco Cardi B Kicks Off Night One of WWE SummerSlam 2025: 'We're Making History Tonight' 'Is It a Crime' rose above a plethora of new releases — among them, songs from hitmakers like Demi Lovato, Chappell Roan, Reneé Rapp and more. Mariah and Kali's collab track topped the poll by a landslide, bringing in more than 57% of the vote. 'Is It a Crime,' a slow jam that has the two artists singing about the return of a past love — and defending the relationship if anyone's got anything to say about it — dropped on July 31, with spicy, jail-themed single art. ('very intentional, very grown woman,' Uchis commented of their shoot on Instagram.) The chorus of the song says it all: 'And so what? I fell, you fell in love a couple times/ Tell me, what's it to ya? Tell me, is it a crime/ To fall, to fall in love, in love a couple times?/ Tell me, what's it to ya? Tell me, is it a crime to fall?' Among the new releases trailing behind 'Is It a Crime' on this week's poll are Demi Lovato's 'Fast,' coming in with 17% of the vote; Chappell Roan's 'The Subway,' with 16% of the vote, and Reneé Rapp's 'Bite Me,' with 2% of the vote. See the final results of this week's poll below.

BTS Matches Taylor Swift In A Rare Chart Feat
Live albums are not uncommon, especially in today's world where the technology to record performances and concerts is more readily accessible and easier to use than ever. But for most artists, recording and releasing live sets doesn't typically lead to major success on the Billboard charts. Live albums rarely perform as well as studio efforts, and it's relatively uncommon for one to break into the top 10 on the Billboard 200, the chart company's most competitive ranking of EPs and full-lengths in the United States. So far in 2025, only two live albums have managed to reach that region — and that number doubles this week. BTS Returns to the Top 10 BTS returns to the highest tier on the Billboard 200 this week with its first live album, Permission to Dance On Stage (Live). The set marks something of a comeback for the South Korean boy band, as all of its members had to step away from their music careers to fulfill South Korea's mandatory military service, which they have now finished. The project debuts at No. 10 with 43,000 equivalent units shifted in its first seven-day tracking period. Taylor Swift Swift's One-Week Smash Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) is one of only two live albums to crack the top 10 on the Billboard 200 this year. BTS joins Taylor Swift in this uncommon feat, according to Billboard. Just a few months ago, in January, Swift scored a new bestselling live title with Lover: Live From Paris. The vinyl version, which was available only for a short time, instantly became a must-have for Swifties. The set reappeared out of nowhere at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, narrowly missing giving the singer-songwriter another chart leader. Lover: Live From Paris then disappeared one week later, and hasn't returned since. BTS Scores Across Multiple Billboard Rankings Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) opens inside the top 10 on all three Billboard charts it debuts on this week, though it earns the lowest start on the Billboard 200. The project brings BTS back to No. 1 on the World Albums list, where the group has now scored 14 rulers. The septet also nearly conquers the Top Album Sales chart, but instead, Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) starts in the runner-up spot behind Don't Tap the Glass, Tyler, the Creator's surprise new full-length.

Best of all, it's soft on his teeth, so no damage there! :D Since chewing through the last several rope toys, I have been using it to play tug of war with him, and it's held up incredibly well — no teeth marks, punctures, rips, or being stretched out. Because of this, it's great as a training tool, redirecting attention while on walks, as a reward for following commands, playing scent/brain games with, etc., and it folds nicely into his backpack when we're finished." —TyraGet it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three sizes).

She carries it outside with her and brings it back in when it's time to come in. Shortly after we purchased it, I remember thinking it had broken because it stopped making the sound, so I put it away. She found it, kept playing with it, and it started making the sound again.

I buy her two every Christmas." —LisaGet it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in two colors and 12 other puzzles). A wildly popular Gumby chew toy with over 4,000 5-star ratings.

It's great for water, which we do throw into the pool with her, but her favorite activity is running and fetching it to bring it back. Being a Newfoundland, she always throws in a little pull game with each return! This has held up amazingly!

I give these to my Chiweenie, and she loves them! Promising review: "My oldest dog is a total butthead about medication. He simply refuses. No amount of bribery will work. Disguise a pill? He has X-ray vision. He will eat the cheese, peanut butter, cream cheese, etc., off the pill and spit it out. Hickory smoke gets him to take his meds about 90 percent of the time without hassling me too much." —Coffee-n-CatsGet it from Amazon for $8.96+ (available in three sizes and five flavors). A really bright rope leash with reflective threading if your dog is always begging to be taken out on night walks. With this leash, drivers and cyclists won't be able to miss you! And the grip is super cushy and comfortable, so even if your dog is tugging, your hand won't get rope burn. Promising review: Love it! My senior dog used to always pull and tug so much but with this leash walking her is so much more easy! It's durable, well made, and when your dog pulls it gently pulls back it doesn't snap. Don't hesitate and buy." —Vanessa LinGet it from Amazon for $7.89+ (available in five sizes and 20 colors). A two-pack of rubber collapsible dog bowls so your dog doesn't get dehydrated if you go on a hike or spend a sunny day at the beach.

Promising review: "Great product for the price. Premium-quality bowl. Holds up to everyday use. We always have it clipped onto our dog's leash and also keep one in the car. Both bowls come with a matching color clip. Collapses down with little to no effort, but stands up great for food and water. Would recommend!" —KyleGet it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in two sizes and 14 color combinations). And finally, a chew-resistant plush toy tough enough for playing fetch and cuddling! AND it has a secret ultrasonic squeaker only dogs hear, so you won't be bothered by a super annoying, loud noise.
