Sick Of It All Announces Release Date For New Album
One of the hardest working hardcore bands out there, Sick of it All, has announced a release date for their upcoming album, The Last Act of Defiance, set to drop September 30th via Century Media Records. The New York hardcore legends just kicked off their European festival tour, which has dates lined up through September.
SOIA drummer Armand Majidi commented on the new record:
“I want them to feel that they just heard a hardcore record that has everything, from blistering speed to bouncing groove, to heavy and pounding to bright and melodic.”
The album artwork is by Ernie Parada who has also designed posters and merch for m=numerous other bands including Hatebreed, Propagandhi, Rancid and The Gaslight Anthem. Check the cover and track list out below.

The album was produced by long-time friend Tue Madsen at Nova Studio in Staten Island, NY and was mixed in Antfarm Studio in Denmark. Majidi said:
“Not only do we get along famously, but he has always understood how to capture the band’s intensity in the quietly controlled, less-than-intense studio setting. It was always difficult for us to find an engineer who could capture our live sound before meeting Tue, so now that we’ve found him, he’s our guy.”
