The video for “Black Grass Plague”, a new song from former MARILYN MANSON and current ROB ZOMBIE guitarist John 5 (real name: John William Lowery), can be seen below. The clip was filmed last summer with John 5’s buddies from THE CREATURES — drummer Rodger Carter and bassist Ian Ross — in North Hollywood, California. Directing and producing the video was Coffin Case founder Jonny Coffin, who previously worked with John 5 on the mini-series “Tales From The Crossroads” as well as the DVD for “God Told Me To” in 2012.
The cover artwork for the “Black Grass Plague” single, designed by John 5, can be seen below.
