As the SoCal band has done with each of the previously released singles, they’ve created a companion merch collection (Thebronxxx.com), with the artwork for both the 7-inch and merch items featuring the stunning graphics of Orange County tattooer-turned-designer, Tokyo Hiro. Caughthran said of the collaboration: “Working with Hiro was a total honor. We are completely blown away by the artwork he created for ‘New Lows,’ it’s perfect.” Three of the 400 “New Low” vinyl collectibles will include the added bonus of an original painting by Hiro.

The Bronx formed in 2002, releasing their self-titled debut album the following year. Over the Los Angeles-based band’s 19 year career, The Bronx have released six original albums under their original namesake, and three albums under their alter ego, Mariachi El Bronx. Both iterations of the now legendary SoCal outfit have been hailed for harnessing the “unleashed cries of youthful blue-collar anguish” (Los Angeles Times), and for writing “hard-hitting and catchy hard rock tracks” (Loudwire). The Bronx is Matt Caughthran (vocals), Joby J. Ford (guitar), Ken Horne (guitar), Brad Magers (bass) and Joey Castillo (drums). # # # |
