Former W.A.S.P. guitarist and inspirational movie-star Chris Holmes is committed to make a name for himself, and we’re not talking about any of his controversial statements about the current state of heavy metal culture but by releasing memorable videos for our collective enjoyment.

Chris Holmes’ new video for “Born Work Die” is quite an inspirational work, considering its acting looks like those infomercial from the 90’s but in HD, the music and lyrics are quite a thrill to witness. It’s also quite a change of heart from the 1997 W.A.S.P. album he played on, Kill.Fuck.Die. Check out the quasi-spoken word performance from Mr. Holmes in the video below.

I was going to link to purchase his new album Shitting Bricks but all I could find on his official store were what looks like cosmetic bags and hippie-like jewelry. The joy of the video is to find out Holmes finally upgraded to a vehicle with spare parts available in any auto parts shop that doesn’t specialize on ‘classic’ vehicles.
