The new highly-stylized, film-like music video noir for the track "Had Enough" stars Ralph Macchio (The Karate Kid), comedian Don Jamieson (That Metal Show) and is the prequel to "Full of Regret."
The video also features Frank Drank, best known for his recurring role as a Viking in the current Capital One ad campaign, reprising his role as Lemmy Kilmister's (Motorhead) henchman.

Directed again by the Diamond Brothers and shot completely in New York, "Had Enough" portrays Macchio as a mad scientist who has found a way to clone himself. The band of Danko Jones is ordered off to deal with it, but their failure at the end of the video is what ultimately leads henchmen Frank and Lemmy to send Elijah Wood and Selma Blair after the band in "Full of Regret."
Spin.com calls it all "a noir-ish crime story that's like a Charles Bukowski novel come to life."
The previously released "Full of Regret" music video has been described as "one-part 'Sabotage,' one-part Guy Ritchie, one-part Quentin Tarantino." It stars Elijah Wood and Selma Blair with featured guest appearances by Lemmy Kilmister (Motörhead) and Mike Watt (Minutemen, fIREHOSE, Stooges). Shot in downtown Los Angeles, the video portrays Lemmy as a mob boss who hires hit men Elijah Wood and Selma Blair to take out the members of the band. Mike Watt plays the narrator as the action-packed story continues to unfold.

Described by Maxim as "AC/DC sniffing glue with Motley Crue" and hailed by Spin as "the world's most entertaining hard rockers," Danko Jones (vox/guitar), John Calabrese aka JC (bass), and Dan Cornelius (drums) have relentlessly toured the world over. Sharing stages with everyone from hard rock icons Motörhead and Sepultura to rock heavyweights Guns N' Roses and Nickelback to musical legends the Rolling Stones, the Toronto trio may very well be one of the best, or worst, kept secrets in music today.
