As reported previously, reunited rock outfit Faith No More has been working on an album that will be out in April 2015. But before that, they will release a 7'' for Record Store Day's Black Friday event featuring a new single called "Motherfucker". (The B-Side is a remix by JG Thirlwell). Hear it above, via Rolling Stone.

The single will be released digitally on December 9. The forthcoming LP, their first since 1997, will be released on Reclamation Recordings/Ipecac Recordings.

In a statement to Rolling Stone, keyboardist Roddy Bottum outlined what the song is about:

It feels apt that the first track we're releasing is 'Motherfucker,' a song about accountability. Basically we've created, recorded and mixed a new body of work by ourselves and we're releasing it on our own label. It's a huge deal for us to only have ourselves to answer to at this point in our career and the song is about that, where the buck stops via the basic imagery of foie gras production, bondage... y'know, stuff like that.
