My Chemical Romance guitarist Frank Iero's band Frank Iero and the Future Violents just released their music video for "Medicine Square Garden." Everything goes pretty well for the most part, except for when Gwar shows up to kill the entire band.
"'Medicine Square Garden' is not your typical single," said Iero. "It’s a five and a half minute attempt at answering the question, 'What if Prince wrote a Sleep song?' Oh and if that’s not batshit enough for you, I already had the video in my head. So armed with crudely drawn set designs and a typed-up description of a witchy calisthenics workout meets a Robert Palmer alien massacre, I submitted my pitch to the label. This was my vision from the beginning and no one told me I was crazy. What a world."
Frank Iero and the Future Violents' new album Barriers is out now.
