Angel Du$t announce new album “Cold 2 The Touch” and share new single

Angel Du$t can’t be stopped. The most daring band in punk/hardcore recently joined forces with Run For Cover Records and now they’ve announced their new album, “Cold 2 The Touch”. Arriving February 13th, the record is a  26-minute blast of eclectic and hard-hitting music that makes it clear that Angel Du$t can’t be contained within the confines of narrow subgenres, and that a term as elemental as rock & roll might actually fit like a glove.

To celebrate the announcement Angel Du$t have shared Cold 2 The Touch‘s untouchably cool title track. It’s a hyperactive cut of galloping drums, razor sharp riffs, and frontman Justice Tripp‘s one-of-a-kind vocal delivery, and the perfect introduction to the next chapter of Angel Du$t‘s constant evolution. 

Angel Du$t began as a fresh start for Tripp after his time leading hardcore legends Trapped Under Ice, and after a decade plus of bold creativity the band have become a punk rock institution all of their own. Tripp blazed the trail for the current generation of hardcore musicians to experiment and take their self-expression into fearless, catchy, and vulnerable places, and “Cold 2 The Touch” proves that Angel Du$t‘s drive to make authentically aggressive rock & roll truly has no limit.

Cold 2 The Touch follows the band’s 2023 album “BRAND NEW SOUL” (which drew praise from fans and critics alike, including Pitchfork, Stereogum, Uproxx, Kerrang, BrooklynVegan, Consequence, Revolver, and many more), and finds Angel Du$t reuniting with producer/engineer Brian McTernan (Turnstile, Balance & Composure, Bane, Converge) who recorded much of their early material. Its also the first release with new members Nick Lewis and Jim Carroll (also of American Nightmare, Suicide File, The Hope Conspiracy and more), and it features guest appearances from all across the hardcore universe–including Scott Vogel (Terror), Wes Eisold (American Nightmare, Cold Cave), Patrick Cozens (Restraining Order) Frank Carter, and Taylor Young (Twitching Tongues, Deadbody). The result is Angel Du$t‘s most flat-out ferocious work in some time, a blender of hard riffs, big hooks, and even bigger personality.  “This is who I am” says Tripp. “and I speak for the band too: these are people who are always going to be playing aggressive rock & roll. It’s happening whether you like it or not. I’m me, and if you get in my way I’m gonna crush you”.
