THE BRONX DROP NEW SINGLE 'SUPERBLOOM' SINGLE ARTWORK BY AUSTRALIAN ARTISTS DABSMYLA

LA’s finest, The Bronx today release a new single ’Superbloom’. The announcement comes off the back of their recent new album news, the highly anticipated Bronx VI will be released on August 27th via Cooking Vinyl. Artwork for ‘Superbloom’ was designed by Australian husband-and-wife visual artist, DabsMyla.

The Bronx frontman Matt Caughthran says of the new single ‘’Superbloom is a search for deeper meaning. Musically, the song originated from our bass player Brad Magers, his first official offering on a Bronx record. The chorus was co-written by guitarist Joby Ford, so there is a sonic push/pull that takes place for the first time in Bronx history. Lyrically, the song is about a day I spent lost in the California wildflowers with an old friend. Reflecting on the past in a somewhat desperate attempt to make sense of the present. A very inspired song beginning to end, one of my favourites on the record.”

Each of the 11 songs on Bronx VI will be available as individual, limited-edition 7-inch singles featuring unique artwork from a hand-picked group of artists including Estevan Oriol, Craig Stecyk, and Tim Armstrong. Artwork for ‘Superbloom’ was designed by Australian husband-and-wife visual artist, DabsMyla. One lucky fan will find a surprise original DabsMyla painting inside the 7-inch sleeve.

DabsMyla said “We were introduced to The Bronx years ago when we were living in Australia. Our friend we were painting graffiti with had the first Bronx album playing in his car while we were driving to the spot and from that point on we were both hooked. Being fans and getting to create artwork for the ‘Superbloom’ single has been an honor!”

Album pre-orders are available now with the collection available digitally, on CD and with a number of vinyl variants including an orange and blue galaxy Australian webstore exclusive.

ABOUT THE BRONX

The Bronx formed in 2002, releasing their self-titled debut album the following year. Over the Los Angeles-based band’s 19 year career, The Bronx have released five original albums under their original namesake, and three albums under their alter ego, Mariachi El Bronx. Both iterations of the now legendary SoCal outfit have been hailed for harnessing the “unleashed cries of youthful blue-collar anguish” (Los Angeles Times), and for writing “hard-hitting and catchy hard rock tracks” (Loudwire). The Bronx is Matt Caughthran (vocals), Joby J. Ford (guitar), Ken Horne (guitar), Brad Magers (bass) and Joey Castillo (drums).
