Me and That Man announce new album ‘New Man, New Songs, Same Shit, Vol.1’

ME AND THAT MAN have announced a new album!

Titled New Man, New Songs, Same Shit, Vol.1, the upcoming album from Nergal’s enigmatic blackened blues project is his second full-length effort and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via Napalm Records. To celebrate the release of the new album, the band will perform a special record release show in London on the same day, including special guests from the album.

The new album arrives three years after their initial debut, the mysterious collective has surpassed themselves with their bewitching new collection; featuring ominous lyricism atop unfiltered blues, gothic-laced folk, outlaw country, and Americana-influenced anthems. The album visits a new spectrum of dark desert vibes and sees notable heavy music icons such as Corey Taylor [SLIPKNOT], Brent Hinds [MASTODON], Matt Heafy [TRIVIUM], Ihsahn [EMPEROR], Siver Høyem[MADRUGADA] and more appear as guest appearances across the album.

Speaking about the upcoming album, Nergal says, “with the utmost pride and… kind of relief; I present to you, the second ME AND THAT MAN album – New Man, New Songs, Same Shit, Vol.1. This time round, I wanted to take on a different challenge and curated an album of 11 songs – each with their own character and vibe; alongside the most talented and important individuals across the whole scene – together, we take trips to the lands of blues, folk, country, and even Spaghetti Western. Only time will tell if we hit the mark, but I deeply believe so. I’m very proud of this piece of work and it has been a monumental task to achieve. I would like to thank EACH one of our guests for being part of this project: Mat & Matt, Niklas and Jørgen, Corey, Alan, Addi, Brent, Vegard, Sivert, Anders, Rob, Jerome, Johanna, and Nicke. I LOVE you all from here to the moon and back! Without the passion and heart you granted us, this wouldn’t have been possible!”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the third single from the upcoming record; titled Surrender. The track features Rob Caggiano of rock titans VOLBEAT and Swedish industrial doom/blues standout DEAD SOUL. The third single follows on from previously released songs Run With The Devil and Burning Churches.
