31 Days, Day 25: Berwanger’s Mario Paint Music Video “Horror Show” is Everything You’ve Ever Wanted and More

By thepaintedman in 31 Days of Halloween, Music October 25, 2017

Josh Berwanger of the 90s synth powered indie rock outfit, The Anniversary, is releasing a new album on Halloween. The album, entitled The Star Invaders, is surely an interesting concept, as you can see by the kick ass video below that he made 100% with Mario Paint, like any good product of the the Nintendo generation should be able to appreciate.

Josh explains the inspiration for the album as such:

I was going through a horrible breakup and was extremely depressed. I was on a family vacation in North Carolina at the ocean and one night a UFO appeared. The UFO sat above me and I begged for it to take me. It then began to multiply, and as my hear beat at an extreme rate I’ve never felt before, the UFOs disappeared into nothing. I felt rejected by everything and began to write this new album.

Check out another track from the album below via the Berwanger Bandcamp page and then grab your copy on Tuesday!
