AIRBOURNE TO RELEASE NEW EPONYMOUS ALBUM ON AUGUST 28TH, NEW SINGLE “ALIVE AFTER DEATH (LAST PLANE OUT)” IS A TRIBUTE TO LEMMY KILMISTER, BON SCOTT AND JOHN BONHAM AND CAN BE HEARD HERE

Airbourne will release their new, self-titled album on August 28th through Spinefarm. The official music video for the LP’s latest single, Alive After Death (Last Plane Out), can be seen below.

A storming anthem of defiance and devotion, Alive After Death (Last Plane Out) is a tribute to the immortality of rock ‘n’ roll and the icons who shaped it. Channeling the spirit of legends like Lemmy Kilmister (Motörhead),Bon Scott(AC/DC) and John Bonham (Led Zeppelin),the track is a high-voltage salute to those who live on every time their music is played.

“When you play this riff, you give me back my hands… when you drop the needle, I’m back in the band,” sings Airbourne frontman Joel O’Keeffe, a line that cuts to the heart of the song’s message: music never dies.

“A fan of Motörhead brings Lemmy back to life by literally listening to his music and remembering who he was,” Joel explains. “When we sing their songs, we give them heat and we put life back into them. We always say Lemmy‘s not dead — he lives forever.”

Alive After Death (Last Plane Out) was produced by Brian Howes, who worked with the band on 2013’s Black Dog Barking album; engineering, meanwhile, was handled by Canadian studio legend Mike Fraser (AC/DC, Aerosmith, Rush, Metallica),with Zakk Cervini (Dayseeker, Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, Machine Gun Kelly) taking charge of the mix.

Airbourne announced the album in a truly original manner. See below the band’s heartfelt letter to Kilmister, sharing their journey through this album’s process and paying homage to their mentor and friend.
