Let It Ride is the ripping new single from New Bedford, Massachusetts’ hardcore punk trailblazers A WILHELM SCREAM. The song is the latest preview of the band’s impending sixth LP, ‘Cheap Heat’, set for release through Creator-Destructor Records on February 27th.
‘Cheap Heat’ was produced and mixed by A WILHELM SCREAM’s own guitarist/vocalist Trevor Reilly at their hometown Anchor End Studio, with mastering handled by his father Joe Reilly at Black & Blue Mastering. The new album also marks the first for the band’s newest member, Ben Murray (Light This City, Heartsounds, Darkness Everywhere) on second guitar, who joins vocalist Nuno Pereira, vocalist/guitarist Trevor Reilly, drummer Nicholas Angelini, and bassist Brian Robinson. Group vocals are delivered by Jon Teves, Sean O’Brien, and the band.
The video for Let It Ride was directed by Mike Rivkees.
Trevor Reilly describes the song as, “East Coast grime meets West Coast shine. A tale about embracing your inner villain and just saying fuck it. Let It Ride. Hop in the whip and blast this shit.”
Nuno Pereira adds, “Coming out the gate hot as fuck! It has swagger, cathartic grit, and a breakneck bop that gives ‘Epic Summertime Adventure Soundtrack’ vibes. Turn this shit up LOUD. Learn every word. Because this one’s gonna’ be an instant classic!”
Creator-Destructor Records will release ‘Cheap Heat’ on three vinyl variants, compact disc, cassette, and digitally on February 27th. Find pre-order/merch options at the label webshop HERE and Bandcamp HERE,
Additional videos/singles are to be expected over the weeks leading up to the album’s release.
In conjunction with the release of ‘Cheap Heat’, the band will encircle the Pacific Ocean on a two-month tour. First up, A WILHELM SCREAM will hit the US West Coast with Death By Stereo and labelmates Doomsday from February 19th through March 1st. Days later, they’ll invade Australia for a week of performances running from March 6th through March 15th, followed immediately by a tour through Japan from March 18th through March 22nd.
