Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes have announced a brand new album, debuted a new single, and revealed plans for an intimate UK and European tour.
New single ‘Crowbar’ was debuted as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record earlier this evening (15th February). You can watch a video for it below.
It’s taken from third album ‘End of Suffering’, which follows on from debut ‘Blossom’ and follow-up ‘Modern Ruin’, and is set for release on 3rd May.
Recorded over six months in London last year, the album is named after the Buddhist term for enlightenment. It’s produced by Cam Blackwood (George Ezra / Jack Savoretti) and mixed by Alan Moulder (Nine Inch Nails / Queens Of The Stone Age), while Tom Morello appears for a guest spot.
Alongside the new material comes a series of intimate UK and European shows, offering a first chance to hear some of the record live. The UK run will start at Oxford’s Bullingdon on 7th February, calling off in Portsmouth, Margate, Bournemouth, Bristol, Swansea, Stoke, Coventry, Sheffield, Liverpool, Newcastle, Edinburgh and York.
