According to the latest statement by “recently awoken” Kung Fu Records, old-school SoCal punk band The Vandals will be releasing a new album in the near future.
We reported back in February on the band’s plans to release an “Australian-themed” album in time for the Soundwave Festival.
However, with this news update, we learn that not only will the guys be releasing this new EP, but there are more in the works! Here’s what Kung Fu Records had to say about all this,
It’s true! What was originally written by the Vandals as an Australian targeted tour E.P. for the recent Soundwave Festival, will now be expanded and improved as a proper worldwide release… Producer Warren Fitzgerald is finishing the tracking right now and 4 to 5 tracks will be mixed by Andy Carpenter (Dwarves, Zebrahead) and released as soon as possible digitally and on vinyl. This will mark the beginning of a regular slate of releases by The Vandals and other artists on the recently awoken Kung Fu Records. David Quackenbush, Warren Fitzgerald, Joe Escalante, and Josh Freese recorded at Josh’s studio and Warren’s Studio and Planet Of The Tapes, mixed at Formula 1.
