Skinny Puppy - Weapon

Skinny Puppy return with a new album Weapon on May 28th. According to the band's label Metropolis, the new album includes 10 new tracks and tackles the issue of weapons, gun control, and glorification of gun culture:

"Could the weapon be the gun, or the one who wields it? Is it in creating an arms race among the populace, or does it lie in the resulting authoritarian control given to those who are charged with protecting us from ourselves? Is it the power to profit from the cycle? Is it the singular act of speaking against the conditioning of our thoughts and actions?"

Weapon will be released on cd and limited edition 180 gram vinyl on May 28th. Read more about Weapon and pre-order now through Metropolis. The tracklisting for Weapon is posted below.  For more on Skinny Puppy, be sure to catch up with them on Facebook.
