Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zinner has announced the launch of a new band More Pain in collaboration with Justin Pearson.

Zinner and Pearson, who previously played together in Head Wound City, said they will release their first EP More Pain on April 19, via the Three One G label.

The duo have shared a video for “Hammering Tenderness,” the first track from the EP. The Joanna Lopes-directed video features black and white images of skulls and gun crosshairs.

Speaking about the new band to Rolling Stone, Pearson said, “Initially it was for part of a film score that Zinner was working on. But the film hasn’t and might not ever come out. So we opted to just release it on Three One G as a three-song EP.

“There was talk about playing live and making it a somewhat legit band, but I think Zinner might be too busy,” Pearson added. “But you never know.”
