HEART ATTACK MAN have announced a new album!

Titled Freak Of Nature, the third full-length album from the American punk band is the follow-up to their 2021 Thoughtz & Prayerz EP and is scheduled to be released in May this year as a self-release.

Speaking about the content of the album, vocalist/guitarist Eric Egan comments, “The overarching theme is growing up. I spent my entire twenties just feeling completely out of place. It was like I hadn’t found my people yet. In early adulthood, I went through a lot of shit mentally. With Freak Of Nature, I’m embracing the fact I don’t know what the hell I’m doing, but it’s okay.”

“I’ve grappled with complex feelings of isolation, loneliness, and freakiness, and it’s an up-and-down rollercoaster,” he adds. “In the end, you need to hold on and trust the process. If I was talking to myself ten years ago, I was in a completely different place. It’s better now. Things do work out. For us, this is a new start, and I’m happy about it.”

Alongside the announcement of the album, the band have released a new music video for its lead single and title track.

Speaking about the new song, Egan comments, “Freak Of Nature is the most solidified HEART ATTACK MAN song we’ve written to date. It cranks it all up to eleven and condenses everything we’ve done into the most potent version of our sound in the form of a true weirdo anthem. Lyrically, I really wanted to zero in on embracing feelings of abnormality and a lifelong sense of being out of place. I’ve always felt a sense of anxiety like I’m about to get yelled at or arrested, and this song is that sentiment flipped into a celebration… The record started to become its own thing after we wrote this one. There’s an overarching method to all of the madness. Musically, we’re levelling up. We allowed ourselves to grow.”
