The Bronx, who recently wrapped up an extensive U.S. tour with Dropkick Murphys and Rancid, have released a limited-edition “New Lows” 7-inch, the latest in their collectible collection of single releases from Bronx VI
(https://thebronx.lnk.to/bronxviPR).
Matt Caughthran said of the song: “Desperate times call for desperate songs. ‘New Lows’ is a last gasp for everything that isn’t meant to be.”
As the SoCal band has done with each of the previously released singles, they’ve created a companion merch collection (Thebronxxx.com), with the artwork for both the 7-inch and merch items featuring the stunning graphics of Orange County tattooer-turned-designer, Tokyo Hiro. Caughthran said of the collaboration: “Working with Hiro was a total honor. We are completely blown away by the artwork he created for ‘New Lows,’ it’s perfect.” Three of the 400 “New Low” vinyl collectibles will include the added bonus of an original painting by Hiro.
The Bronx have made the release of their sixth album much more than a standard album release, working with a variety of artists and musicians to create unique collectibles and art pieces that not only add visuals to the music but also represent the world The Bronx lives within.
