After nearly two decades, 2019 saw the triumphant return of the Cro-Mags and new music with the release of two back-to-back EPs (“Don’t Give In” and “From The Grave”). Now, the band continue to not miss a beat, delivering an old-fashioned, hardcore-punk assault with “The Final Test.” The track is just a taste of what’s to come from the band’s upcoming full-length album, In The Beginning, available worldwide on June 19 via Mission Two Entertainment.
“Will you be afraid or will you be at peace when you die?” asks Cro-Mags founder, bassist and lyricist, Harley Flanagan. “This song is about finding peace and facing death fearlessly, which is in my opinion, the final test.”
Cro-Mags rounded out with guitarists Rocky George, Gabby Abularach and drummer Garry Sullivan, hit the road last year supporting the reunited Misfits and compiled footage for their first music video in 27 years with “No One’s Victim.”
