L.S. Dunes – vocalist Anthony Green, guitarist Frank Iero, bassist Tim Payne, drummer Tucker Rule, and guitarist Travis Stever shared the video for “Grey Veins,” a blistering anthem off the band’s highly acclaimed debut album released last year – ‘Past Lives.’
An ingenious send-up of ’70s Japanese Sci-Fi horror flicks, the ‘Grey Veins’ video features the band as soldiers battling forces greater than themselves while orchestrating a miniature war for Earth’s survival. The fantastical trip was helmed by noted directed David Brodsky, (August Burns Red, Helmet, Cannibal Corpse), who previously worked with L.S. Dunes on the video for their first single, ‘Permanent Rebellion.’
Guitarist Frank Iero shares: “I’ve always said that if I couldn’t be in a band the only other thing I would want to do is to make monster movies. It’s been my dream ever since I was little, and it was the thing my dad and I bonded over. From an early age, music and monsters is just something that went hand in hand for me. [Japanese film genre] Kaiju is something I have been fascinated by ever since I was a kid and I have always wanted to do an homage to that art form in a music video. I love that L.S. Dunes is such an open-minded and inspiring collective of artists that allowed me to chase that idea and make that dream a reality. ‘Grey Veins’ felt like the perfect song to pair with this concept and so when the time came I knew David and Allie at My Good Eye, our frequent collaborators, were the perfect match to bring this to fruition.”
