Letlive.'s fourth studio album entitled 'If I'm The Devil…' will arrive on June 10. With a sound that Afropunk described as "the first truly unique post-hardcore band in years," Letlive. is a band that reflects humanity as a collection of emotional, frontal-lobe beings, and uses their ambition to ignite the same passion with their fans. 'Good Mourning, America' fuses political lyricism with the urgency of punk, rhythms of hip hop, and avant-garde noise: Check it out here Since their beginning in 2002, Letlive. has been a band that is not easy to categorise. In fact, Letlive. refuse to be constrained by the ideas of a "scene" – whether it is punk, metal, indie, rap. However 'If I’m the Devil…' necessitates a genre, one could posit revolutionary counterculture music - a punk rock Run the Jewels, a more emotional Rage Against the Machine, and Public Enemy with more inclusive politics. The album is the follow up to Letlive.'s critically-lauded 2013 release, ‘The Blackest Beautiful’. And the time spent between that and 2016 are defined by the band's engagement with the griot lineage of Saul Williams and Ta-Nehisi Coates, the deaths of Eric Garner and Mike Brown, the social pathologies that led to Ferguson, Missouri and divisive redlining policies that are functionally domestic terrorism. And with those ideas Letlive. is a band that aims to bring political messages into rock music again. “Our music is very left-leaning. It’s very clear I have a large disdain for the way a lot of systems are working and our society’s incapability to unravel," front man Jason Butler states.
