ASH
Share new track ‘Crashed Out Wasted’
New album Race The Night released 15th Sept 2023 via Fierce Panda
UK / EU tour on sale now
Ash are today sharing new track ‘Crashed Out Wasted’, another glimpse into the variety and depth that their forthcoming album Race The Night holds.
‘Crashed Out Wasted’ lines up next to recent new album cuts ‘Race The Night’, ‘Like A God’, and ‘Usual Places’, stoking anticipation for a record that promises to be super-charged, widescreen and with melodies to spare. Already winning consistent support across BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 2 and Absolute Radio, these new songs bring with them what lead singer and guitarist Tim Wheeler describes as “the sound of the band reveling in the sheer joy of being a band after being separated by time and distance through the insanity of the early 2020s.”
About this latest track, Wheeler comments: “Crashed Out Wasted is an ode to one of those nights. You may be the last one standing, or wobbling, but you aren’t ready to end it just yet. You’re drunk dialing, and shit posting, looking for a partner in Dionysian crime. Before you know it you’re crashing down the stairs, your mind is gone, and that’s when THE BAD THING HAPPENS…”
New album Race The Night will be released on 15th September 2023 via one of their earliest label homes Fierce Panda. UK pre-orders are live now here. Race The Night is available across gatefold vinyl, CD, cassette and ltd edition vinyl formats. A limited-edition Amazon exclusive CD with an extended version of recent single ‘Like A God’, packaged with alternative artwork, can be pre-ordered here.
Ash will be playing a week-long run of instore / outstore live shows as Race The Night is released. The shows will combine Q&As, acoustic sets and signings, as well as a special show at Pryzm Kingston, at which the band will play tracks from the new album fully electric for the first time.
