Buñuel has shared the single Class,” the third single from the upcoming double album Mansuetude which is set for release via SKiN GRAFT Records and Italy’s Overdrive Records on October 25, 2024.

Buñuel features the vocals and lyrics of Eugene S. Robinson (ex-OXBOW) and an Italian trio comprised of guitarist Xabier Iriondo (AFTERHOURS, A SHORT APNEA), bassist Andrea Lombardini (The FRAMERS) and drummer Franz Valente (IL TEATRO DEGLI ORRORI).

About the track Eugene S. Robinson comments:

America is schizophrenic about class and class attributes. On the one hand we claim it doesn’t exist here, on the other hand like Paul Fussell lays out in his book on class, it works its way through every aspect of American life and living. The song itself eviscerates the notion by placing it where it most needs to be placed: in the iD fuelled underworld.

Mansuetude was produced by Timo Ellis, and features additional guests including Jacob Bannon (lead singer of CONVERGE), guitarist Duane Denison (The JESUS LIZARD, TOMAHAWK,The DENISON KIMBALL TRIO), cellist Andrea Beninati and David Binney on alto saxophone and vocals.
