Big Ass Truck I.E. have announced their debut EP, Found On Road Dead.
The Southern California hardcore wrecking crew’s first full statement will arrive digitally and on limited-edition 10-inch “Tire” vinyl on October 20 via Nuclear Blast Records.
Alongside the announcement, the band have unleashed new single Dragging Meat, accompanied by a video directed by Astral Media’s Zack Perez. The track showcases the band’s collision of hardcore aggression, huge riffs, concussive breakdowns and monster-trucking chaos.
“We’re super stoked to finally get these tracks out into the world,” says vocalist Abel Abarca. “Starting with ‘Dragging Meat’ only made sense with how hard it hits, this song has become one of our favorites we’ve made and we cant wait to bring it out to our live shows this October/November.”
Found On Road Dead follows the band’s previous singles Back Wheel Stomp and Pushed Beyond The Brink, expanding on their suitably destructive blend of hardcore, gigantic riffs and breakdowns built for the pit.
And here’s the artwork:
And here’s the tracklist:
- Found On Road Dead
- Dragging Meat
- Big Ass Gun
- Forced Through Sludge
- 1 Trillion Pounds
The EP will arrive on the same day Big Ass Truck I.E. kick off their North American headline tour, with the run featuring Chamber, Mugshot, Load Tha Nine, Surfaced, Restrictor Plate and Lie, plus appearances at Furnace Fest and Warped Tour Orlando.
The band will then bring their live show to the UK in January for a headline tour with support from Pintglass.
