Detroit, MI punk act Death (not to be confused with the pioneering death metal act of the same name) have announced that they will be releasing a studio album, appropriately titled N.E.W., on April 21, 2015 via Tryangle / Drag City Records. It will be the band’s first recorded output in nearly 40 years, as the band’s other albums (…For the Whole World to See, Spiritual | Mental | Physical, and III) were all archival collections of unreleased recordings.
To celebrate the coming release, the band has released “Look at Your Life”, the first single from N.E.W., which you can listen to below.
Death originally broke up in 1977, but reformed in 2009 when Drag City uncovered and released their first album …For the Whole World to See. Since then, interest in the band has grown exponentially, particularly after the release of the 2012 documentary A Band Called Death.
