Listeners can expect a powerful package of ten songs, no bullshit, highly explosive and straight to the point. The trinity of heaviness, melody and grooves has new kings. Responsibly for the well-rounded and massively powerful sound is Jacob Hansen, the man responsible for the Volbeat albums.
In 2016, THE NEW BLACK will embark on “A Monster‘s Tour“.
Two dates have already be confirmed:
26.02. D-Würzburg, Cairo (Release Show)

According to AFM Records, Germany‘s heavy rockers THE NEW BLACK filmed a third video for a song from their album „III: Cut Loose“. The clip to ‘Any Colour You Like (As Long As It‘s Black)’ can be found here.
Comments the band: „‘The glass half empty, and filled with piss…’ Ah, well. It all looks pretty normal at first. But there is something dark lurking at the edges. Unnoticed, decay sets in, and the blackness might be closer than you think. But then again life goes on. As does the music. And the fart jokes. ‘Any Colour’ is not exactly a song about peace, love and good happiness stuff. But fun to play live. Like fart jokes, pretty much. Enjoy, comment and – this actually important – please spread around.“
The clip was once more directed by THE NEW BLACK‘s Fludid. No spiders, cockroaches, worms or musicians were harmed during the filming. All pyro scenes, car chases and naked dancers had to be omitted due at the last minute.
