The last time the band played in Britain was in 2000, when they did two sold-out nights at London Wembley Arena.

The new album marks is the band’s first studio release since 2002’s ‘Riot Act’.

Asked about the record, the band commented: “We’ve got all the instruments going full force, yet coexisting. It’s like we took our aggressions and shaped something positive from them in a very direct manner. Though we’d qualify most of the record as hard-driving, the two quiet ones (‘Parachutes’ and ‘Come Back’) could be our best attempts yet at pulling the disguises off of loss of life, and even love.”
