Machine Gun Kelly has revealed he's changed the name of his new album, six months after he and Travis Barker got the old title tattooed.
In the hilarious video shared to Kelly's Instagram, the singer let Barker in on the news. 'Okay, we're friends no matter what right?'.
The pair had got the matching tattoo of the original title Born With Horns on their forearms.
Kelly captioned the video 'my bad @travisbaker' and can be heard saying 'remember when we got the album name... the new album name tattooed on our arms?'

The video then cuts to footage of the pair six months earlier donning the tattoo.
Barker, who obviously knows his friend well, guesses the news before he was told, saying: 'you change the...'
Kelly pats him on the back, laughing, and confirms 'I'm changing the album name'. At this point, the Blink 182 drummer asks the question we've all been wondering: 'Okay, what's the new album name?'
The screen then cuts to black with music - presumably from the new album - which is titled Mainstream Sellout, with an anarchy symbol replacing the 'A'.
Barker is producing the album but a release date is yet to be announced.
Barker and Kelly's friendship has grown in recent years and they first collaborated professionally in 2020 when Barker produced Kelly's album Tickets to My Downfall.
The pair are often seen out together with their fiancées Kourtney Kardashian and Megan Fox. Kelly recently proposed to Fox, who he has been dating since May 2020.
The engagement made headlines when it was revealed the pair 'drank each other's blood' after Fox said 'yes, in this life and every life'.
Kelly took to Instagram to share the news and explained the unique - and controversial - design of the ring.
'I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birth stone) and the diamond (my birth stone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love', he said.
In a later interview with Vogue, Kelly explained that the ring bands being thorns meant that 'if she tries to take it off, it hurts'.
