5 November 2026 (single); album Battle Scars follows on 29 January 2027
The Interrupters Share Back From The Dead, a Song About a Second Life
The Interrupters have shared a new single, and it is a heavy one emotionally. "Back From The Dead" arrived on 5 November 2026 with an official music video, and it is track 8 on the band's upcoming album Battle Scars, which is out on 29 January 2027 via Hellcat/Epitaph.
Singer Aimee Interrupter describes the song as a reawakening and says she had a near-death experience. She also calls it her letter to alcohol, the worst friend she ever had. She has not gone into the details of what happened, so the song stays the main place where the story lives.
About Battle Scars
The album has eleven tracks and follows 2022's In The Wild. It was produced by Kevin Bivona and longtime collaborator Tim Armstrong, and Armstrong pushed for recording on analogue tape. That meant Aimee sang live with the band, and a mistake meant rewinding and erasing the tape before another take, which kept the sessions quick. Aimee has said the record is about the triumph, victory and strength you get after going through something.
There are some big names on board too. Travis Barker plays drums on "Wild Heart", "Unbreakable" and "Warrior Spirit". Jesse Michaels of Operation Ivy appears on "Stranger" and helped write material. Armstrong and Vic Ruggiero feature on "One More Trip", and Brett Gurewitz of Bad Religion also worked with the band during the sessions.
