DANKO JONES Premier New Video
March 15, 2011, 13 years ago
Toronto rockers DANKO JONES have debuted their new video for 'I Think Bad Thoughts', the third and final installment of the Below The Belt video trilogy.
The video marks the return of an all-star cast that had been previously featured in both of the band’s epic 'Full Of Regret' and 'Had Enough' videos. 'I Think Bad Thoughts' stars actors Elijah Wood (Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Hobbit) and Ralph Macchio (The Karate Kid, ABC television’s Dancing With The Stars) reprising their roles from previous videos in the trilogy, actress Jena Malone (Into The Wild, The Messenger, Sucker Punch), Mike Watt (Minutemen/Firehose/The Stooges), Frank Drank (Capitol One Viking), and Art Hsu (Crank: High Voltage, The FP).
Directed by the Diamond Brothers, Josh and Jason (video directors of the entire Below The Belt trilogy), and shot in Los Angeles, “mad scientist” Ralph Macchio and his assistant Jena Malone seek out Danko Jones to help finish the job on hitmen Frank Drank and Elijah Wood – as set forth in the previous videos.
