HEALTH have shared their new single, ‘A.L.O.N.E.’, taken from their upcoming EP, ADDENDUM, releasing April 30 via Loma Vista Recordings.
Industrial cum metal group HEALTH are on a generational run. Having just released their latest album CONFLICT DLC back in December last year, the group aren’t sitting still, and has just announced an all-new EP, ADDENDUM, primed for release on April 30 via Loma Vista Recordings.
Along with the announcement of their EP, the band have shared their new track ‘A.L.O.N.E’, accompanied by a very graphic video featuring footage from the 1995 black comedy film The Doom Generation, so you might want to avoid watching it on your commute back home.
You can listen to the new song below:
The Addendum EP is an expanded release of the group’s four-song EP, originally included with the Ultra Edition of their 2024 release, RAT WARS. The new tracklisting for the EP features three new songs: ‘Trials’, ‘A.L.O.N.E’, and ‘Ruin’.
The band’s sixth album arrived when the group’s main themes of societal collapse, isolation and dystopia felt all too relevant – a fact the band were all too aware of during the promotion cycle of their new album. “Before we were writing dystopian music for a future, primitive, broken society in a sort of conceptual way. Now, society is just that,” frontman Jake Duzsik told Blunt.
He’d also explain that the band wanted its newer songs to hit harder in a live setting, explaining that they wanted CONFLICT DLC to inhabit “the same aesthetic and sonic space as RAT WARS, but…more energetic, more fun, and simultaneously more sad.”
HEALTH are also set to return to Australia later this year, bringing along French producer Perturbator and King Yosef for a night of industrial cyberpunk-inspired tunes.
The tour is expected to kick off at Brisbane’s Tivoli on the 18th of September, touring down Australia’s east coast before wrapping at Fremantle’s Metropolis venue on the 26th of September.
