Frank Iero announces 'Stomachaches'

Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance has announced his debut solo album 'Stomachaches' to be released under the title Frnkiero and the Cellabration.

The album is set to be released on August 26 via Staple Records. Check out what Iero had to say about the release below:

“In late 2012 I started to experience an increase in my already painful digestive issues and my creative side started to wither under the weight of not ever feeling well. I turned my basement office into a makeshift studio and every time I felt the pain coming on I’d go downstairs and hammer out an idea. After a few months I started to take a look at what I was making, I had for the first time in my life written a large grip of songs completely alone and without any expectations or plans of what they would be for. I’ve always been in bands writing songs with friends in order to play shows or record a future record. But this was different. These songs, they were all mine. They started inside me as these wretched stomachaches and I had to dig them out of me in order to survive. They were my disease and ultimately became my cure"
