THE DAMNED THINGS, featuring members of FALL OUT BOY, ANTHRAX and EVERY TIME I DIE, recently performed their track 'Ironiclast' on Fearless Music. Check out the footage below:

MTV.com recently issued a report from James Montgomery in which Joe Trohman (FALL OUT BOY) and Scott Ian (ANTHRAX) discuss The Damned Things. The following is an excerpt:

"We've got tours lined up to the summer at this point — actually, options and opportunities to do stuff worldwide all the way through October. And that's obviously what we're hoping for. We were hoping we'd make a record that would stand on its own and not be about, like, 'Well, let's just book this band because it's these guys from this band and these guys from this band,' " Ian said. "It's really been about the record. The record's been the driving force. If anything, with the success of [first single] '[We've Got a] Situation [Here]' on the radio, it's been more about that than even who's in the band anymore, and that's kind of what we've been hoping for, and that's why we get to go on tour, and that's why we'll keep playing shows. ... Really, when it comes down to it, nobody really cares who's in the band if you make a crappy record."
