We are proud to reveal the details of the new album from the radical Los Angeles punk band letlive. Their fourth studio album entitled If I’m The Devil… will arrive on June 10. With a sound that Afropunk described as “the first truly unique post-hardcore band in years,” letlive. is a band that reflects humanity as a collection of emotional, frontal-lobe beings, and uses their ambition to ignite the same passion with their fans.
Noisey has an interview with front man Jason Butler on the song and is currently premiering “Good Mourning, America“. It fuses political lyricism with the urgency of punk, rhythms of hip hop, and avant-garde noise.
Jason Butler (vocals), RJ Johnson (bass), Jeff Sahyoun (guitar), and Loniel Robinson (drums) recorded If I’m The Devil… at Kingsize Studiolabs in Los Angeles, with co-producer Justyn Pilbrow. Guitarist Jeff Sahyoun explains, “We collectively wanted the audio realm we have spent years creating to give birth to a digestible powerhouse of modern sound.” It is a strident, principled and heavy studio work created by 4 uniquely creative individuals known for letting their passion unfurl onstage. Those who have witnessed a letlive. show can attest that it is a connective, reactive and provocative experience that transcends the standard band performance and stage/audience dynamic. That explosive energy and fury is fully expressed on If I’m the Devil…As Butler states, “I feel we’ve spent years developing the idea that is letlive. and with this record I feel we have finally developed the SOUND that is letlive..”
Pre-orders for If I’m the Devil… are available at https://letlive.lnk.to/iitd. Letlive. tour dates in support of the album are to be announced soon.
