THE DEAD DEADS have announced a brand new album!

Titled Tell Your Girls It’s Alright, the upcoming album from the Nashville-based power trio is scheduled for release in August this year via Rumble Records.

To celebrate the news, the band has released a brand new single, with an accompanying music video, from the album. Murder Ballad II, which follows from Deal With Me, features iconic SLIPKNOT/STONE SOUR vocalist Corey Taylor.

“My little brother was teasing me the other day about the juxtaposition of our poorly-attended first gig playing a benefit show of DEAD MILKMEN covers to now releasing a duet with Corey Taylor,“ says guitarist Meta Dead. “I know most people’s question is probably going to be: How did this happen? And the answer is: CMFT is nice as hell, and likes the kind of songs we write.”

In an interview with Matt Pinfield, Taylor spoke about the track and working with the band, “I got turned on to (THE DEAD DEADS) by their album For Your Obliteration… which is such a great album and is some of the best song writing I’ve heard in years. We had the chance to have them on some STONE SOUR shows, and me and Tish hit it off as songwriters. She said, ‘I’ve got this idea for a follow-up to Murder Ballad, which was essentially Murder Ballad II. Through video, we went back and forth, building this song and working it out. It became something really really cool.”
