L.S. Dunes is the brand new post-hard band that includes present and former members of Coheed & Cambria, My Chemical Romance, and Circa Survive. The band just lately launched their new LEGO-heavy music video “Gray Veins” and swiftly obtained a takedown discover by The LEGO Group.
Guitarist Frank Iero has issued a press release on the matter, just about asking why the hell The LEGO Group would not need the video to stay on-line. Iero additionally factors out that he is a lifelong LEGO fan, and feels somewhat damage by the interplay.
“Pricey @lego, why are you having your legal professionals name my report label (@fantasyrecords) and demand we take down the @LSDunes music video we made for our tune Gray Veins?” wrote Iero.
“As a card carrying Lego VIP and lifelong creator and builder I’m damage and wildly confused. I’ve spent extra hours than I can calculate, to not point out hundreds upon hundreds of {dollars} over time, shopping for and constructing your units as a toddler, a teen, a semi-adult, and now as a dad who builds along with his son. An eleven yr outdated who loves Legos greater than anybody I’ve ever met, and even made us dedicate a room in our home to constructing them. My household and I’ve vacationed at Legoland and my different band has been voted into your Lego Concepts program by 10k supporters as a possible future construct set.
“I really like your organization since you gave us bricks and taught us we did not have to just accept the world because it was, we may see what was potential and construct it ourselves. I’ve taken that inspiration and created a universe of my very own and now you wish to squash it, why?

This all appears particularly bizarre contemplating tons of merchandise make it into tons of music movies, purposefully and simply by being within the background. And it is not like the purpose of L.S. Dunes‘ music video was to be like “hey, fuck LEGO!” or something malicious. I suppose LEGO is the Nintendo of the toy world.
Anyway, nobody tell the Lite Brite people about Sum 41. They will have a shit match.
