Buñuel announce new album ‘Mansuetude’

BUÑUEL have announced a new album!

Titled Mansuetude, the upcoming album from the American/Italian noise rock band is the follow-up to 2022’s Killers Like Us, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via SKiN GRAFT/Overdrive.

The upcoming album was produced by Timo Ellis, and features guests including Jacob Bannon [lead singer of CONVERGE], guitarist Duane Denison [THE JESUS LIZARD, TOMAHAWK, THE DENISON KIMBALL TRIO], vocalist Megan Osztrosits [COUCH SLUT], cellist Andrea Beninati and David Binney on alto saxophone and vocals.

Drummer Franz Valente comments that “BUÑUEL is a name that embodies a certain cultural and literary reference, which evokes an entire world. Like his films, our BUÑUEL is surrealism. We take the listeners into a place that’s suspended between dream and reality.”

“What we’re doing with BUÑUEL is to carve out a very specific glimpse… partly into hearts of darkness, but more specifically into the depth of our secrets,” says vocalist Eugene S. Robinson. “Secrets we keep from each other, ourselves and whatever futures we’ve imagined for ourselves. We are ultimately trying to communicate something direct and deadly about the human condition.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming album; Drug Burn. Speaking about the new song, the band shares, “one of the steadfast rules the Hells Angels used to tout to members, NO DRUG BURNS. Which just goes to show, there really IS honour among, well you know. Following a wayward path to an even more wayward song, BUÑUEL’s rendering of said BURN will make your ears (and eyes, if you’re lucky enough to see the video) burn.”
