Exclusive: Bad Mary Premiere “It’s All Trash” Video

The NYC based glam-punk band Bad Mary are set to release their new song, It’s All Trash, on November 8th but they have today exclusively revealed the accompanying video via The Punk Site. The imagery provides the perfect aesthetic for the energy and vibe of the song as it was shot commando style in an abandoned psychiatric hospital. In mid-December, the band plans to bring some fist-pumping holiday cheer with the release of their holiday EP, A Very Bad Christmas, that will feature edgy rock n’ punk versions of Silent Night, Angels We Have Heard High and Little Drummer Boy. An EP of all new material, Trash And Glamour, will follow in early 2023.

“This song is a sort of realization that despite a fancy label or how we dress up a lot of what we consume, much of it is still just… trash. I wanted to still convey this message in our own, cheeky and bratty way, hence the 80s glam metal “oh yeahs” in the chorus. In the end, even Trash can be a lot of fun. This is also, to me, one of our heaviest songs, which I like as it encapsulates a fun-yet-aggressive vibe.” (bassist Mike Staub)

“We shot the video in an abandoned psychiatric center. We had to get a guide, Krispy DeRato, who knew their way around to help us find a good place to shoot. We had to walk through partly flooded dark tunnels full of white mud and dripping water to get there, it was pretty gross honestly, and if Krispy had not been guiding us, we definitely would have got lost down there. Once situated, I just played the song on my phone and said, “OK, just do the Amanda dance around the building.” Amanda took off and owned the space, I pretty much just followed her around making sure I got everything. It had rained the night before, so all of the dripping water and mud were just part of the natural atmosphere of the place.” (guitarist David Henderson)

You can catch also Bad Mary on their weekly live stream on Facebook, YouTube, Patreon and Twitch on Tuesday nights at 8 pm EST.
