Surprise! Here’s a New Dead Cross EP!!!

Oh my gosh! This sure is some delightful news: Dead Cross, the band featuring current and former members of Faith No More, Slayer, The Locust, and others, have surprise-released a new, self-titled EP! It includes two new songs, “Skin of a Redneck” and “My Perfect Prisoner,” as well as remixes of two tracks from last year’s eponymous full-length, “Shillelagh” and “Church of the Motherfuckers.” Lookit, one of the new songs even got this super-duper unsettling music video (rated NSFW for gore):

Since I’m literally just learning about this now, I haven’t yet gotten to hear the other three tracks on the EP. But it’s Dead Cross. The other new song is sure to be great, and the remixes will be extraneous at worst.

The EP is out now on digital platforms, and can be streamed in its entirety below; a 10″ will be released on June 29 via Ipecac Records. Dead Cross have a whole mess of live dates scheduled throughout Europe this summer. Those dates are below the EP stream.
