Gogol Bordello have announced that they will release their latest album, ‘Solidaritine’, later this year.Coloured by the ongoing war in frontman Eugene Hutz’s native Ukraine, the album sees the band move back towards a harder punk sound.“This is music of survival and perseverance”, says Hutz. “That’s always been our main driving force.
We just want to give the world a timeless album with messages of human potential and power”.“Our music was always about perseverance”, he goes on. “Rock n roll comes out of a real place.
Take a group of people who have endured immigrant traumas and dislocation. They create music, get successful together, become more baroque and experimental, and experience some years of relative calm.
All of a sudden, humankind encounters these problems like the pandemic and the war. This is when rock n roll is the most necessary and where we perform the best”.“The album is really about uniting the people of goodwill”, he concludes.
“Releasing any kind of art that doesn’t address the situation in Ukraine right now would be pretty despicable”.The first single from the album is ‘Focus Coin’, of which Hutz says: “The quality of your ability to focus defines everything in your life and that’s exactly what the first single ‘Focus Coin’ is about. Your focus is the hardest currency there is”.‘Solidaritine’ is set for release on 16 Oct. Listen to ‘Focus Coin’ here:

Muse have shared their new single ‘Kill Or Be Killed’ from their forthcoming ninth album ‘Will Of The People’ – listen to the track below.The song, which has been previewed at numerous festivals over the summer, is the fourth to be lifted from the trio’s new LP after the title track, ‘Compliance’ and ‘Won’t Stand Down’.Frontman Matt Bellamy said: “’Kill Or Be Killed’ is Muse at their heaviest! We wanted to update our hard rock sound on this album and with ‘Kill Or Be Killed’ we found a modern metal sound featuring double bass drum action and even a death growl.“Lyrically the song takes influence from my favourite Paul McCartney song ‘Live And Let Die’, a dark take on how life’s adversity can sometimes bring out the worst human instincts to survival at any costs.”‘Will Of The People’ is due out August 26 via Warner Records and can be pre-ordered here.Meanwhile, Muse’s Matt Bellamy recently told NME that he thinks society wants “a new type of revolution”.Following the coronavirus pandemic, the war in Ukraine and the current cost of living crisis, the frontman said he believes change is coming.“I think everyone knows we want a revolution, but we definitely don’t want a bunch of authoritarian lunatics from the right. That’s the last thing we want,” he told NME.“And also we don’t want a total communist situation on the hard left either.
