Angel Du$t announce new album ‘BRAND NEW SOUL’
Hardcore legend Justice Tripp and the Angel Du$t crew are back wit the announcement of ‘BRAND NEW SOUL’, out September 8th on Pop Wig Records.
Recorded by Paul Mercer, mixed by Rob Schnapf and Steve Wright, and produced by Tripp himself, BRAND NEW SOUL feels like the most potent encapsulation of the frontman's vision to date. The album manages to tap into elements from every era of the band's catalog, combining rock & roll swagger, hardcore ferocity, and adventurous production flourishes to prove once again that there's no other band quite like Angel Du$t.
It’s this combination of heart and inventiveness that makes BRAND NEW SOUL such an endearing listen, and the record almost feels like a proof-of-concept for the daring spirit that’s led Tripp his entire life. His story is far from fully written, but ten years into Angel Du$t, it’s finally starting to seem clear that the songwriter’s many creative risks have paid off. The band’s influence is palpable, and BRAND NEW SOUL is poised with open arms to bring even more people into the unique world Tripp has created–one where stage dives and sweetness fit perfectly together, and everyone is welcome to get in on the fun. “The music bringing people together is the most important thing,” he says. “I would hope that the biggest impact we’ve had is just encouraging people to express themselves.”
Along with the announcement the group has released the blazing new single ‘Space Jam’
Angel Du$t will embark on a massive UK and US tour in support of the album.
