Official press release:

Bay Area rock outfit Black Map have debuted an all new song today titled “Run Rabbit Run” (stream below) from their all new LP coming out next year. Frontman and bass player Ben Flannagan says:

“The song is one of my favorites on the record and definitely one of the most intense. It also really encompasses a lot of what the whole album is about: the damage that’s caused by just blindly following and veering from our individuality; from the elements that make each of us unique.”

The new track is available on all major streaming services and will be offered as an iTunes instant gratification track. Fans who pre-order the album today will get “Run Rabbit Run” immediately as a download.

Black Map will release In Droves on Friday March 10th 2017 via Entertainment One (eOne) in North America and SPV overseas. The band only wrapped up production on the effort last month with Aaron Hellam at Oakland’s Hellam Sound (The Trophy Fire) and created an ambitious but no less intense sophomore set, a boundary smashing, down-tuned heavy rock slab.

After a successful run with Chevelle this year, the band will be heading back out on the road at the top of 2017 for another round. A full list of dates hitting much of the western half of the U.S. can be seen below.
