The Jesus Lizard is back with their first new record in 28 years Rack, due out September 13 via Ipecac Recordings. The Jesus Lizard is now streaming “Hide & Seek”, which vocalist David Yow describes as “a perky ditty about a witch who can’t behave, and it’s got nearly as many hooks as a Mike Tyson fight.”
The Jesus Lizard guitarist Duane Denison added: “There are definitely some references to the past, but it’s more as a point of departure: We don’t stay there.”
Bassist David Wm. Sims said the band “literally only made the record because we thought it would be fun to make the record,” while drummer Mac McNeilly noted: “We are bonded by the music we make, and also by the respect we have for each other”
