30 Seconds to Mars: "Kings + Queens"

30 Seconds to Mars and front man Jared Leto (OMG...Jordan Catalano still haunts my dreams) debuted their new much-anticipated "Kings and Queens" video on Myspace yesterday. From the band's new album, This Is War, "Kings + Queens" takes you on a critical mass ride through the late-night streets of L.A., showing a part of the city most people don't get to see.

"I don't know what to say. We spent two years of our lives working on that record, and it was us against the world. We didn't have outside influence or help, we didn't have a label, we had us, betting the farm, and pushing ourselves," Leto told MTV. "There were times that it was overwhelming. Everything that was going on was brutal, but there were beautiful moments as well. There was so many outside influences that were in conflict that working on the record was actually quite peaceful. It was a case of survival, to tell the truth."

Leto continues, "One thing that I know is that this record is really the best that we can do. It's everything that we have inside of us. It's our complete commitment, it's our complete abandonment, our blood and our bones and our heart and our soul, and everything. Everything we have is in this record, so that's what we have to say. ... Regardless of what anyone thinks of the record, we made the record we set out to make. ... Who knows if anyone in the world will like it or not? That's to be determined."

WATCH the video below. This is War is scheduled to release December 8th.
