The new solo album from guitarist Billy Morrison (Billy Idol, The Cult) is filled with big-name guests, and now he’s tapped Hollywood actor Joe Manganiello for the music video for “It’s Come to This.”

The cinematic clip sees Morrison cruising through the desert in a shimmering blue Shelby Mustang. There is a loose narrative here, so spoilers ahead: Morrison pulls over to dig up a mysterious bag before pulling up to a shack. Manganiello (True Blood, Magic Mike) sits on the porch playing a guitar, striking his typical imposing figure.

As Billy approaches, he produces a box from the aforementioned bag. Manganiello takes a peak inside and is immediately blinded by a brilliant light. As he closes the box, Morrison sheds a wry smile and returns to his Mustang, leaving Manganiello with the drop. The ending definitely pulls the “What’s in the box?” card from Seven, while the cinematography evokes the highway-scapes of Vanishing Point and Mad Max.

“So in the spirit of how this whole album came together, I wanted Joe to have an input into what was behind his character,” Morrison remarked in a press release. “I knew I wanted to interact with some weird, unknown origin desert dweller. He came up with the idea that he is a collector of souls. And that I was making a deal with him to deliver one particular soul in exchange for the return of mine! So that’s the box that I dig up before I had to his strange desert shack! Joe just makes an imposing and scary figure on film, so he was the first and only choice to make that cameo!”

As for the track, “It’s Come to This” is a heavy riff-driven rocker written by Morrison and Erik Eldenius. It’s the third single from the former’s new album The Morrison Project and follows the Ozzy Osbourne collab “Crack Cocaine.” In other news, Morrison and Ozzy have also teamed up for a new internet show, The Madhouse Chronicles, discussing various topics like “aliens, drugs, conspiracies, and rock and roll.”
