Band of Heathens Offer Up Free Oil Spill Song

While the Band of Heathens' new song "Free Again" will keep fans happily humming and tapping, it will probably raise some eyebrows as well. The track � available for free on the band's web site on July 15 � references the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. "It's sure to be the feel-good hit of the summer," quips band member Ed Jurdi. "Imagine the Silver Surfer making his way through Brian Wilson's brain and ending up on summer holiday in the Gulf of Mexico. That's the loose plot of the tune."

"A big belief of the band is that we shouldn't put limitations on when we release material," says Jurdi. "We are always available and open to the creative muse. If we're working on something that feels good, the next logical step is to share it with people who have helped us create our own little space in this weird and woolly time." - Grab the song and upcoming tour dates here
