There's a video for new single 'More Than Machines' too.

It has been announced that Bush will release a new album, The Art of Survival, on October 7th.

And, in case you were wondering what to expect from the London born grunge revivalists, Gavin Rossdale and co have released the album's political lead-off single, More Than Machines.

Look! Here it is!

“This is an action-packed song with three really big topics," says Rossdale, 56, of the new song. "Off the bat, I don’t understand how anyone has the audacity to get involved or assume responsibility for women’s bodies. I wanted to reference that, because it’s important to discuss.

"As much as the song is about the destruction of women’s rights, it’s about the destruction of the planet and the move for A.I. and a world of robots to replace us. It’s a topic we’ve heard since the fifties."

He continues; "I’m not here to teach anything though. My job is medieval like a town crier. I come into town with my elixirs and sing about it, so it hopefully goes out into the universe."

The video for the new single was filmed at the inaugural Atlantis Concert for Earth, a two-day event which rook place inside the Sete Cidades Massif volcano in The Azores in July.

Hang on a second, there's no way that Gavin Rossdale is 56 years old.
