Hot TakeL.A. GUNS'
"Requiem (Hollywood Forever)" video can be seen below. The song comes off
L.A. GUNS' new album,
"Hollywood Forever", which was released on June 5, 2012 via
Cleopatra Records.
L.A. GUNS spent a few days in Los Angeles shooting three videos to support the record. Videos for
"Araña Negra" and
"You Better Not Love Me" were also filmed. Videographer
Jack Foster was behind the lens for the shoot at the legendary Circus Disco in Hollywood. With an LED logo in the background, the band meshed theatrics with its expected rock energy on the big stage. Later, additional scenes were filmed in L.A.'s colorful Little Mexico and the landmark Hollywood Forever cemetery.
L.A. GUNS last month announced the addition of guitarist
Frankie Wilsey to the group's ranks.
Due to "extenuating circumstances and musical differences," guitarist
Stacey Blades announced his departure from
L.A. GUNS in early December.
Blades played on four
L.A. GUNS albums:
"Rips The Covers Off" (2004),
"Tales Trom The Strip" (2005),
"Loud And Dangerous: Live From Hollywood" (2006) and
"Hollywood Forever" (2012). He also authored a book,
"Confessions Of A Replacement Rockstar", which was published in 2009.
