Zebrahead announce brand new studio album "Walk the plank"
Ahead of their UK headline tour this winter, pop-punk heroes Zebrahead have today unveiled details of a new full-length studio album called ‘Walk The Plank’ , set for release through Rude Records on October 16th.
Tracklisting:
- Who Brings A Knife To A Gunfight?
- Worse Than This
- Headrush
- Keep It To Myself
- Running With Wolves
- So What
- Save Your Breath
- Walk The Plank
- Under The Deep Blue Sea
- Wasted Generation

The album, made of heavy punk mixed with hooky pop songs, was recorded at Buzzbomb Studios, Orange County with Paul Miner, long-time friend and old writing, recording and touring partner of band member Dan.
On the album’s title, bassist Ben Ozz comments: “Touring all the time and traveling can be a bit of a pirate's sort of life, so it fits in that sense. So in a way to us it's about taking a chance in life and walking the plank of life. It could also just be too much rum in the Mai Tai also but that's another story!”
And he continues: “It's one of our best-sounding records to date! We wanted it to sound like you're in an arm-wrestling competition at the beach while doing a keg stand! Hopefully it'll take you on that journey before the ice in your cocktail melts!”
The first taste of what’s to come can be seen in the form of this lyric video for ‘Save Your Breath'
‘Walk The Plank’ follows the recent split EP ‘Out Of Control’ with Man With A Mission that impressively charted at number 1 in the Japanese iTunes Rock chart and at number 2 in the overall physical chart for the whole Country.
