New York noise rockers Unsane have big plans in 2026 for their 1998 album “Occupational Hazard“. That record has newly been remastered by Andrew Schneider (Cave In, KEN mode) and has been expanded for an upcoming February 06th reissue through the band’s own Lamb Unlimited label imprint.
The bonus track “No Soul” will be included on all formats of this reissue, while the previously unreleased original six-song demo session for the album recorded at AmRep Studios in Minneapolis, MN will be made available as bonus digital content. You can pre-order it now via unsane.lnk.to/occupationalremaster. You can also take in the newly remastered version of “Committed” from the record below.
The group have plans to perform that album in full in its entirety for a one-time-only set at the 2026 ‘Roadburn Festival‘ in Tilburg, NET. Outside of that, they’ve also announced a European/UK tour focusing on material from that record. Those dates include:
