“This record is a collision of my heroes and my scars, the loudest moments I’ve ever lived and the quiet truths I couldn’t outrun. Don’t worry there’s some fun moments too. It’s not over-polished, it’s not safe, but it’s exactly who I am.”
The effort’s latest single, “Brown Sugar” (feat. Billy Gibbons and Slash), can be found below. Montana added the following about that:
“Recording ‘Brown Sugar’ with Billy F Gibbons and Slash was a full-circle moment for me. My first brush with music was finding a Guns N’ Roses tape, and later I became a die-hard ZZ Top fan. Billy is like family, and seeing him play ‘Brown Sugar’ at our Wise River Club made me realize it had to be the one. To have these childhood heroes, Billy, who’s become a mentor, and Slash, who lit that early spark on this track with me is beyond a dream.”

Europe Premiere “The Cult Of Ignorance” Video
Europe have premiered a new video for their new song “The Cult Of Ignorance.” The track is from the band’s new album, “Come This Madness,” which will be released on September 25. Singer Joey Tempest said the following about the single:
“I love this track! It’s a straightforward rock anthem with lyrics reflecting the times we live in, written slightly tongue in cheek. Mic [Michaeli, keyboards] came to me with this song idea while on tour in South America — I thought it was crazy good! We finished it together and it’s become a real banger! The title was inspired by a phrase coined by author and biochemist Isaac Asimov. It reflects some of the negative tendencies emerging in our world today, though it is written in a slightly light-hearted tone.”
