Black Lips drop new song “Occidental Front”

Black Lips drop new song "Occidental Front". The band has also announced new live dates.

Atlanta’s garage/psych/punk band, Black Lips have shared their new single “Occidental Front” from their forthcoming release Satan’s graffiti or God’s art?. The song stars music and art legend Yoko Ono, who lends her singular vocal talents to the recording. The Sean Lennon-produced album is set for release this Friday, May 5 on VICE Records, and features a new lineup with founding members Cole Alexander and Jared Swilley joined by former guitarist Jack Hines (who played in the group from 2002-2004) and recent additions Oakley Munson on drums and Zumi Rosow on saxophone.

The band also recently added a west coast leg to their ever-expanding tour in support of the new album, which kicks off tomorrow night in North Carolina.
