Happy anniversary to the one and only Stomachaches by Frank Iero. In celebration of its 10th birthday, the My Chemical Romance and L.S. Dunes guitarist released a deluxe version of the record titled XNauseousX. In tandem with the deluxe LP release, Iero also dropped a new music video for “2.5mg Just Ain’t Enough For Me.” The video is comprised of fan-sourced videos from concerts, meet and greets, and more, making it extra special.
Of this celebration, Iero shares, “Release days are always special for creators. It’s a wonderful thing getting to watch the art you made in the confines of your own little world finally be relinquished and spread out, reaching other people all over the world. But this type of release day might be even more precious because not only is it a release of material, but it’s also a coming of age birthday celebration (or cellabration yuk yuk) of sorts as well.”
He adds, “Stomachaches is now 10 years old and will finally be able to carry with it all the other pieces that make it whole, like we all do on a daily basis. And I’m proud to share what it is, for better or worse, because it makes me who I am. Enjoy.”
Opening with “This Song Is A Curse…,” the 12-track collection features several covers, BBC Maida Vale Studios sessions, and never-before-heard tracks. You can secure the album here and order a limited edition vinyl here.
