Ash have shared a brand-new single from their forthcoming album ‘Race The Night’. Like A God is the follow-up to last month’s lead single and album title-track Race The Night, which heralded anticipation for a record that promises to be super-charged, widescreen and with melodies to spare. It won instant support across BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 2 and Absolute Radio, bringing with it what lead singer and guitarist Tim Wheeler described 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.”
Like A God comes on fast as muscular riffing beats a path to its wild and raucous end. Wheeler comments: “Like A God pushes the rock aspect of the album to its furtherest limits. An ode to sexual apotheosis it revels in a carnal riff played with mantra like repetition before reaching a frenzied climax.”
New album ‘Race The Night’ will be released on September 15, 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.
