Danko Jones are the latest band to jump on the "reissue our latest album with some extras" bandwagon. Bad Taste Records will re-release Danko Jones's latest full-length album Below the Belt on June 21st as a deluxe reissue featuring two new bonus tracks titled "Guest List Blues" and "Rock N Roll Proletariat."
Also included in the newly expanded CD version is the entire Below the Belt music video trilogy. Under the terms of a new distribution deal, MRI will handle distribution of the deluxe reissue in the U.S. through Sony/RED.
Danko Jones is scheduled to perform at the Rock on the Range Festival on Friday, May 20th before the band heads overseas for a round of European festival dates in June. Additional U.S. summer tour dates will be announced shortly.
The Below the Belt video trilogy was shot over the course of 2010 and 2011 for the album tracks "Full of Regret," "Had Enough," and "I Think Bad Thoughts." The video for "Full of Regret," a highly-stylized, film-like music video noir, has been described as "one-part 'Sabotage,' one-part Guy Ritchie, one-part Quentin Tarantino" and stars actor Elijah Wood and actress Selma Blair, with featured guest appearances by Lemmy Kilmister (Motφrhead) and Mike Watt (Minutemen, fIREHOSE, Stooges).
