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. The first video for “Full Of Regret” was hailed as “one-part ‘Sabotage’, one-part Guy Ritchie, one-part Quentin Tarantino,” while Spin.com called the “Had Enough” video “a noir-ish crime story that’s like a
Charles Bukowski novel come to life.”

Described by Maxim as “AC/DC sniffing glue with MÖTLEY CRÜE” and hailed by SPIN as “the world’s most entertaining hard rockers,” Danko Jones (vocals, guitar), John Calabrese a.k.a. JC (bass), and Dan
Cornelius (drums) have relentlessly toured the world over. Sharing stages
with everyone from hard rock icons MOTÖRHEAD and SEPULTURA to rock heavyweights GUNS N’ ROSES and NICKELBACK to musical legends THE ROLLING STONES, the Toronto trio may very well be one
of the best-, or worst-, kept secrets in music today.

IRON MAIDEN‘s current phenomenal
global success has seen the band not only scale new-found heights aided by their
unique method of touring, using a customized Boeing 757 — named Ed Force One by
their fans — to transport band, crew and all their equipment round the world to
many new places, but has meant their ever-expanding fanbase now encompasses a
brand new generation of metal lovers. “From Fear To Eternity” is a chance
for these new fans of the band to explore IRON MAIDEN‘s rich history,
with the highlights of their last eight studio albums distilled into this handy
collection, which follows 2009’s compilation of their earlier work, the
1980-1990 “Somewhere Back In Time” album.

critical acclaim in the process. Featuring many of the epics for which the band
has become renowned, it is accordingly released as a double CD, but will retail
