Mastodon have released a stream of their new track Show Yourself.
It will feature on the band’s upcoming seventh album Emperor Of Sand, which will launch on March 31 via Reprise Records.
Brann Dailor, Brent Hinds, Bill Kelliher and Troy Sanders previously revealed the song Sultan’s Curse from the follow-up to 2014’s Once More ‘Round The Sun.
Speaking about the album tracks, drummer Dailor said: “There is a tie, a concept that goes between them. The last couple of years have been not… there’s been some illness within the bands’ family, there’s been a bunch of cancer.
“So the whole album is sort of all about cancer basically. Well, not literally. It’s a big story that sort of roped to go along with it. It takes place in the desert.”
Emperor Of Sand is available to pre-order now via iTunes.
Mastodon will head out on tour from April.
