(Freeman Promotions) Worldwide Panic have released their new, self-titled LP! The new record dropped last Friday (February 17), and features the singles, "I Tried", "Falling Apart', and "Less Than Nothing".

Speaking on the experience of filming the music video and the deeper message behind the album's lyrics, Lane Steele (vocals, bass) comments: "The road to releasing this record has been challenging, long, and rewarding. We believe this body of work accurately reflects the meaningful industrial hard rock that Worldwide Panic is all about, hence the album being self-titled. We hope fans enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed recording it. Crank it up!"

The new album features nine original songs, along with a reimagined rendition of the Tears For Fears smash hit "Everyone Wants to Rule the World". Commenting on the experience of filming the video, Steele adds: "This video was filmed in multiple locations in the Phoenix area, and it took a great deal of prep to make it happen. Also, this was my first time producing a video! I think we all let our hair down and had fun, and we hope fans get that vibe when they see the video."
