Faith No More Is Back

And that’s not all. The alternative rock band is also getting ready to release its first LP since 1997’s Album of the Year. The as-of-yet untitled album is due out in May via Faith No More’s newly formed imprint, Reclamation Recordings, which is distributed by Ipecac Recordings.         

After putting out the single “Motherfucker” as part of Record Store Day in November, the tune “Superhero” will be available as a limited edition 7-inch single March 17. A digital version can be yours March 31.

“Here we go,” Faith No More founder/bassist Bill Gould says. “First North American tour dates, some in cities we haven’t played in over 17 years. We are armed with the new material and ready for whatever comes our way.”
