Archives For 30 Seconds to Mars

I like this alt rock cover of Lady G’s Bad Romance, Jared does it justice.

This is the first song that 30STM has released from their upcoming album “This is War” it is called “Kings and Queens” check it. This is one of the few bands I always go and see live because their shows are amazing and so is the vibe from their hardcore fans “The Mars Army.” Also, this is one of the few bands who actually uses social media the way it was intended, direct engagement with the fans, no middle man no record label required. The reason why I listen to them is not just the music, it is who they are, it is their creativity, their pension of taking an idea and manifesting it into something real, something so beautiful, and the inherent truth that lays within. Word.

Kings and Queens by 30 Seconds to Mars

Into the night
Desperate and broken
The sound of a fight
Father has spoken

We were the Kings and Queens of Promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser God
Between Heaven and Hell
Heaven and Hell

Into your lives
Hopeless and taken
We stole our new lives
Through blood and pain
In defense of our dreams
In defense of our dreams

We were the Kings and Queens of Promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser God
Between Heaven and Hell
Heaven and Hell

The age of man is over
A darkness comes and all
These lessons that we learned here
Have only just begun

We were the Kings and Queens of Promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser God
Between Heaven and Hell

We are the Kings
We are the Queens
We are the Kings
We are the Queens

This well done video mashup is the two movies V for Vendetta + Phantom of the Opera & the award winning 30 Seconds To Mars song “The Kill” all wrapped up into one. Good concept, good execution.

This is one of the best music & video mashups I have found floating around online in a long while. It is pretty stylized and the resulting video is different, somehow more then just the sum of the parts. It flows pretty consistently considering how different the source materials are, yet pulls from similar themes (darkness, the masks, duality, duplicity, etc). It is very original in both the content selection & the specific scene cuts which are used. Hats off to mergirl1 for this piece of creative mash.
