New BRMC track and release info

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club’s next album, Beat The Devil’s Tattoo, is out in early March. You can listen to the title single here. It sounds very BRMC-y. A bit of the acoustic roots sound of Howl, but darker. It’s a decent little stomper, but it’s not blowing me away.

Here’s further info on the release from the band’s mailing list:
