Young Legionnaire have unveiled their new track and video, ‘Disappear’. Having launched their PledgeMusic campaign towards the end of 2015, it’s the first full track to appear from ‘Zero Worship’, their full-length follow-up to ‘Crisis Works’.

Accompanied by a clip depicting some of the trio’s antics over the past two years, the track continues their thrilling angular punk, driven forward by experimental melodies and Paul Mullen’s distinctive vocals.

The track and video are both available to view via Bandcamp, and below.

‘Zero Worship’ will be available from the 25th November through Superstar Destroyer.

Featuring Paul Mullen, formerly of Yourcodenameis:milo and Gordon Moakes, formerly of Bloc Party, Young Legionnaire have launched a Pledge campaign for their new album.

“A work in progress for the last two years, we’re finally ready to transport it from our brains to your ears,” the band announced via Facebook earlier this week.

The band have been reasonably quiet since the release of ‘Wreckonomics’ in 2012, the follow up to their 2011 debut, ‘Crisis Works’.

Young Legionnaire, completed by drummer Dean Pearson, supported Idlewild earlier in the year.

Head over to Pledge Music for more information on the campaign, and to support the creation of the record via pre-order.
