The final project of a crazy 2025. Best way to end the year! Check out the video for Anthrax’s “It’s For The Kids”. Anyone who knows me knows I grew up listening to heavy metal and punk rock. I have been an Anthrax fan since I was a kid, and I honestly remember where I was when I first saw the “madhouse” video. Fast forward 30 plus years later and I’m in an abandoned insane asylum with a band I grew up listening to, directing their first music video in a decade, freezing cold with no heat, and I couldn’t have been happier.
My only goal was to try and start the video at 100 and then go from there. I also wanted it to feel like the videos of the 80’s without it feeling like a nostalgic parody.
Special shout out to my amazing DP @jarredalterman and incredible colorist @fredebokken@pictureshop for completely crushing this visually, an incredible cast from @pennhurstasylum , great crew, and above all, the fans that showed up in the freezing cold, sat around all day and never heard one complaint. We may be all be older now, but you still can’t fuck with us.
Lastly, thanks to Greg Caputo @phillypoot for recommending me, and lastly, thanks to @scottianthrax , @charbenante , @thefrankbello@joeybelladonnaofficial@jonathanmdonais@anthrax for giving me the opportunity. You made a dumb kid from New Jersey very happy.

THE END OF AN ERA
A documentary about Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour has long been the stuff of rumor, and now it’s finally confirmed as the stuff of reality — but there’s much more to it than expected. The singer announced Monday that a six-part docuseries, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era,” will premiere on Disney+ on Dec. 12, accompanied by the simultaneous release of a new concert film, “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show,” shot at the tour finale in Vancouver, B.C.
Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era” is directed by Don Argott, co-directed by Sheena M. Joyce and produced by Object & Animal. “Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show,” meanwhile, is directed by Glenn Weiss and produced by Taylor Swift Productions in association with Silent House Productions.
So incredibly excited to share the trailer for KELCE. It's been a pretty awesome day with all the love so far for the film. Beyond grateful to @jason.kelce@kykelce@connorbarwin98@killatrav for trusting @sheenamjoyce and myself.

Mulholland Drive meets Goo. Your buddy who worked at the video store crashed his car into the cool girl who worked at the record store. @kim_gordon_official@sonicyouth_official #sonicyouth #davidlynch #mulhollanddrive #goo #vintage
I met Dom and NOTHING in 2014 when I got a call asking me to direct a video for this Philly based shoe gaze band. The song was called “Bent Nail” from their Guilty of Everything record. I have been a huge fan since. Psyched to share the new video for “Toothless Coal” off their forthcoming album “A Short History Of Decay“. I love how this came out and I think it perfectly captures the vibe of the song.
Check out the full video on YouTube. The new record is out February 27th on Run For Cover. Per-Order and check out their other albums. They’re amazing.
