The Menzingers have just released a new track, Gone West.

The single is taken from the deluxe edition of their 2023 seventh album Some Of It Was True, which is due out on Friday, May 31 and also includes another new song by the name of The Last One Killed Me.

Speaking about today’s newly-unveiled effort, vocalist/guitarist Tom May explains that, “We recorded Gone West at the same time as Some Of It Was True, and although we didn’t think it fit just right on the album, it has some of my favorite guitar and vocal melodies.

“The lyrics are a tongue-in-cheek play on accepting the truth of your own mortality. I always thought ‘goin’ west’ was an interesting euphemism for dying; following the sun.”

Check out Gone West below:
