Following the breakout success of their eighth studio album and Napalm Records debut, 2020's A Wonderful Life, the USA-based masked metal masters Mushroomhead return with 2024's cinematic Call The Devil - laying waste to any preconceived notions of where the band heads in its third decade of reign is due on 9 August.

Returning after a 12-year hiatus, longtime guitarist Dave "Gravy" Felton - who performed on the band's several biggest albums and is a primary songwriter on classic anthems like "Along The Way", "Sun Doesn't Rise" and "The Dream Is Over" - contributes his trademark skills to two Call The Devil album tracks. The album once again features production by band mastermind/drummer Steve "Skinny" Felton, as well as the return of Matt Wallace (Faith No More, 3 Doors Down) on mixing, also recognized for his work on Mushroomhead's iconic album XIII. The album is also the band's first to feature mastering from Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Epica, Arch Enemy).

Alongside the album announcement, Mushroomhead revealed the album's hard-hitting first single, "Fall In Line", with an unnerving video offering a first-person look at the band's new masks, featuring design elements and sculpting by Jordan Patton and guitarist Joe Gall. The track pummels with electro-industrial injections and spine-tingling keys, boasting a twisting vocal attack balancing brutal and melodic sounds from vocalists Scott Beck and Jackie LaPonza.

Mushroomhead's mastermind Steve "Skinny" Felton says about "Fall In Line": "One of my favorite things about the 'Fall In Line' video is the use of the color red. It's a powerful and emotional color palette. 'Fall In Line' was actually the last song we recorded for the LP. It came together really fast. Upbeat, aggressive and fun".

30 years into its groundbreaking history, Mushroomhead shows no signs of slowing down, proving innovative without losing sight of its trademark sound and imagery. Call The Devil boasts everything from bangers to ballads, providing a variety that every heavy music fan will have on repeat!

Steve "Skinny" Felton says about the album title: "We played around with a few different album titles, and apparently Shout At The Devil was already taken... so we figured we'd just try calling". Link
