We have been longstanding fans of Murder By Death’s parched, dusty, and often desolate outlaw country-folk and so it was the cause of much excitement to hear the first taste from forthcoming album Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon.

The brooding and cinematic Lost River is a song they describe as being “about a lover who drowned in the river calling out and beckoning the living to join them”

The album is released later this month on the ever reliable Bloodshot Records – pre-order a copy here.
