Experience the passion of UK post punk visionaries New Model Army with the release of their new studio album, entitled "Between Dog And Wolf" (Out September 2013). A rich, vibrant and multi-layered work with a deep and soulful atmosphere, the album promises to be something "very different" from previous releases and demonstrates how the band is enjoying an exciting phase in their long and successful career.

The self-produced set was finished earlier this year and was mixed by Joe Barresi in his Los Angeles studio, best known for his work with Tool, Queens Of The Stone Age, Bad Religion and Soundgarden.

Originally as a three piece, New Model Army were formed in Bradford, UK in 1980 by Justin Sullivan. The current five piece features Michael Dean on drums, Dean White on keyboards, Marshall Gill on guitar and 26 year old new bass player, Ceri Monger, whose presence has added to the band's creative and live resurgence.

Justin Sullivan says:
"After a series of purist 'rock-band-in-a-room' albums over the last eight years, we felt it was time to do something a bit different and sonically this is the best album we've ever made. The title comes from a medieval French expression for dusk -- when it's hard to distinguish between dog and wolf, friend or foe. That sense of contradiction represents the band very well and there's also something of this sense of transformation in the album. It has been a stormy four years since the release of the last album. With the sudden death of our manager, the loss of our studio in the fire, subsequent theft of remaining equipment and our old bass player Nelson's departure, we in essence lost everything. We used this to make a new beginning and part of the change was effected with the arrival of Ceri and the refreshing energy and musical influences he brought. We are very excited about the new album and what the future holds for the band."

Said Ceri "I have loved New Model Army's music for many years and am chuffed to be a part of this incredible album. I think the record is pretty unique and I look forward to hearing what people think when they hear it."

With hits like "51st State" and "Vagabonds", to name just a few, the band built a reputation for dealing with challenging topics in their lyrics such as justice, the meaning of life, nature or grievances in society. The band established themselves as having an uncanny ability to convey and trigger powerful emotions, particularly through the distinctive voice of Justin Sullivan.

The album's stunning artwork is based around a painting by long time artistic collaborator Joolz.
Said Joolz, "I always hear the albums being created from the first acoustic strum onwards and it quickly became obvious that this album was going to be different in sound from previous records. Early on Justin saw some artwork I had designed originally for a tattoo client of mine, an image of Herne the Hunter and the Herlathing, and the primitive tribal paganism of the picture really symbolised to him the heavy pounding drum rhythms and passions that are at the heart of this album."

Royal Television Society Award winning documentary maker Matt Reid, ( known for his prime time BBC1 TV series on The British Royal Family and ITV's "The Savoy" ) has directed a feature length documentary on the band's career, and is in the final stages of editing for a 2014 release.

The band is now looking forward to being back on tour in autumn presenting "Between Dog And Wolf" live along with their all time classics.

"It's always good to be back on the road -- and the current atmosphere in the band is the most hungry and upbeat that I can remember. We're really looking forward to this", says Justin Sullivan.
