I am incredibly honoured to present to you lot, my lovely readership, the exclusive premiere of Iguana Death Cult’s latest single, ‘Reckless Running’.

Iguana Death Cult is a band who have made quite the miles in the last decade. Started as a group of young friends in 2014 wanting to make rock ‘n roll, the band has risen to great heights including touring with Osees, Frankie and the Witchfingers, supporting Jack White, playing SXSW, Levitation Festival and Desert Daze and doing multiple successful US tours.  

On their new record Guns Out, released via Greenway Records and The Reverberation Appreciation Society, Iguana Death Cult is exercising self-reflection on multiple levels: by breaking with the more indie-like, art-punk-funk sound of their previous album (Echo Palace, released through Innovative Leisure in 2023), returning to a more ‘in your face’ punchy garage rock style.

Secondly, by confronting a behaviour of escapism, and the toll that way of living takes on the self. And finally, by ways of questioning their ways of writing music, returning to a faster, more spontaneous process. Guns Out is an album that’s tough and rigid on the outside but soft and contemplative on the inside. It is the story of a band coming to terms with their own existence in the world they live in. 

‘Reckless Running’ is the third single from the band’s upcoming album, Guns Out, out April 10.
