Details have been unveiled for At The Drive-In‘s first full-length studio album in 17 years. It will be titled “in·ter a·li·a” (Latin for “among other things”) and will meet a May 05th release date. The band’s own Omar Rodriguez-Lopez co-produced the effort alongside Rich Costey (Sigur Rós, Muse).
A brand new track from it titled “Incurably Innocent” has debuted below with frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala stating the it is “a song about sexual abuse and being able to finally speak out.” Speaking of the new album itself, Bixler-Zavala in part told NME of the initial writing for it in South Korea:
“We’d get up as early as we could and would go and do what I call ‘beating your head against the wall’. That was really hitting the ground running with figuring out how to learn to write with each other. We did that for a good chunk of time. In that monstrous heat, we would drive to that studio and go a little crazy. It wasn’t a very glamorous studio, it was bare bones. You just had to be forced to not fuck around, and not sit around and play video games like maybe some people do.”
