Initially released in 2023, The Menzingers' Some Of It Was True (Deluxe) will come out this Friday, May 31, via Epitaph. The expanded edition includes two new songs, one of which is shared below, and which will also be pressed on 7".
“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,” vocalist/guitarist Tom May says in a press release. “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.”
The band will be on your in North America and Australia this year.
