Alien Ant Farm’s ‘mAntras’ Grows From The Good And The Bad In Their Lives

Southern California Rock band Alien Ant Farm have released the official music video for their single “So Cold”. The track is the first taste of new music from the band after a long hiatus and is taken from the band’s upcoming album ~mAntras~ to be released April 24, 2024 through Megaforce Records.

~mAntras~ is the band’s sixth full-length album, and it was “shaped by personal change and growth” also representing a new beginning for them. It’s a collection that suggests a “musical journey,” but, also as its title suggests, “a personal and spiritual one.”

As guitarist Terry Corso puts it:

Growing up, divorce, children, family, death, band break-ups, surgeries, illness, health—everything is in this record. It’s literally a product of all the fucking shit, good and bad, that we went through.

Vocalist Dryden Mitchell adds:

The manure makes the flower grow.

Regarding the sound on their new album, Corso continues:

Longevity has kind of become the luxury because it lets us do all this stuff that we want to do. It gives us a bit wiggle room to have those prog tendencies and move in ways that feel good to us.

Alien Ant Farm is confirmed to perform at Welcome To Rockville 2024 with the likes of Foo Fighters, Evanescence, Disturbed, Slipknot, FLYLEAF and more. The band will also perform in Ashland, KY on June 8 at Paramount Arts Center.
