THE PRETTY RECKLESS will release its new album, “Death By Rock And Roll”, on February 12, 2021 via Fearless Records in the U.S. and Century Media Records in the rest of the world. The latest single from the effort, “25”, will arrive this coming Friday, November 13.
“After years of putting our blood sweat and tears into the recording, I’m so excited for you all to hear it,” singer Taylor Momsen wrote in an Instagram post. She also shared the LP artwork and the hashtag #thenexterahasbegun.
“Death By Rock And Roll” is THE PRETTY RECKLESS‘s first album to be made without longtime producer Kato Khandwala, who died in April 2018 from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.
A few months ago, Momsen confirmed that RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE guitarist Tom Morello guests on “Death By Rock And Roll”. Morello appears on a track called “And So It Went”.
Morello joins previously announced guests Kim Thayil and Matt Cameron from SOUNDGARDEN. The song with Cameron and Thayil, called “Only Love Can Save Me Now”, was recorded at Seattle’s legendary London Bridge Studios, where seminal LPs like PEARL JAM‘s “Ten” and SOUNDGARDEN‘s “Louder Than Love” were laid down.
According to Momsen, “Death By Rock And Roll” “almost feels like the first record in the sense that we really threw everything that we had at it — we worked so hard on it,” she said. “And I’m just excited for it to be out and have people come on this journey with me and see where it took us. I think it took us, in my opinion, to a new level. It’s a new and improved PRETTY RECKLESS.”
