MÖTLEY CRÜE USHERS IN A NEW ERA WITH “DOGS OF WAR”
RETURN WITH FIRST NEW RELEASE SINCE 2019
Mötley Crüe returns with a brand new single, “Dogs of War,” out now on all platforms via Big Machine Records. Their first song since 2019, the band has also released an accompanying music video for the new track. Created by Nick DenBoer, the visual features the rowdy quartet in an apocalyptic wasteland, full of classic Crüe debauchery.
It’s always great getting back in the studio with the guys in the band,” Nikki Sixx admits. “We know you’re gonna like this one.”
Bob Rock, who produced the new single, as well as Mötley Crüe’s famed 1989 album, Dr. Feelgood, adds, “Working with the band on the new song was the easiest session I have ever had with them… The Crüe is the best they have ever been! And they have plenty of new stuff in store.”
