Monster Truck have shared details of their fourth studio album.
'Warriors' will arrive through BMG on September 30, and include the new single, Fuzz Mountain, which shows off the Canadian band's signature bone-rumbling and addictive riffs, complete with lyrics about the distortion pedals utilized in the recording. Bassist and singer, Jon Harvey said:
"Fuzz Mountain was born of the unhealthy love of guitar fuzz through large amplifiers, at punishing volumes. I imagined a little house on a hill where I could sit with all my amps and pedals and just melt my brain. My imaginary holy place. The lyrics and riff came at a time where I would try to daisy-chain fuzz pedals for, sometimes, unlistenable results. Just me, a bunch of fuzz, tune power and a bunch of speakers pushing air in my face. I ain’t never gonna leave."
Produced by Eric Ratz, the 10-track record will also include the previously unveiled cuts Get My Things And Go, and Golden Woman. Harvey added: "I think this record was a real eye-opener that we should be trusting ourselves and doing exactly what we feel is right. It’s an affirmation of our mission statement to have a good time, be respectful, and get out there and party. I think that’s the main theme of this album. It’s about being a warrior in life and fighting for what you deserve."
The rockers will support the LP's release with a headline UK tour in the autumn, with support from Welsh band Those Damn Crows. Tickets are on sale now.
