Supersuckers, the self-proclaimed “Greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll Band in the World,” return louder, sharper, and rowdier than ever with Liquor, Women, Drugs & Killing, their twelfth studio album and first for Jesse Dayton's Hardcharger Records in partnership with Blue Élan Records. The album will be released on October 3, with the scorching new single “Volunteer” arriving today on all major streaming platforms.

Nearly four decades into their unrelenting career, the Supersuckers — fronted by bassist and vocalist Edward Carlyle Daly III (AKA Eddie Spaghetti) alongside longtime guitarist “Metal” Marty Chandler and drummer Christopher “Chango” von Streicher — are still doing it their way, with no apologies and no compromises. “It’s just what I do,” Daly says of continuing to write and record. “We don’t expect a new record to change the world. We just keep doing what we love — and somehow, we keep making great records.”

Liquor, Women, Drugs & Killing finds the band locking back in with producer and longtime friend Billy Joe Bowers (who helmed sessions in Atlanta), delivering a lean, mean, 3-piece attack that captures the rawness and swagger that’s defined the Supersuckers since 1988. After years of self-producing and self-releasing their records, Daly says teaming with Bowers and signing with Hardcharger gave the band a much-needed shot of adrenaline. “Being produced again was new and helped the record a lot,” he notes. “Billy Joe was able to tap into something we didn’t see, and the record is extra special because of that.”

The album is filled with the Supersuckers’ trademark wit, riffs, and reckless charm — none more evident than on the new single, “Volunteer,” a hilariously biting track about notstepping up. “It’s a rocker with a tongue planted firmly in cheek,” Daly says. “Very us.”

Other standouts include the Motörhead-esque “Maybe I’m Just Messin’ With You” (the song that first sparked the album) which was released in April, the acoustic-to-arena-rock churn of “Meaningful Songs,” and “Unsolvable Problems,” which Daly calls his favorite cut on the album — “In a perfect world, this song would be a huge hit,” he jokes.

The Supersuckers may not have anything left to prove, but Liquor, Women, Drugs & Killing proves they’ve still got plenty left in the tank — and they’re just getting warmed up.

“We have no business putting out a record this good this late in our career,” Daly says. “It’s what makes us the greatest rock ’n’ roll band in the world.”
