Freedom

• Track Listing

Refused came to an end in front of 50 kids at a basement show in a Virginia college town in 1998, just as their release of the same year, The Shape of Punk to Come, was taking it's first steps toward becoming an acknowledged classic and a massive influence on a generation of bands. Refused Are F*cking Dead! Became the slogan, as kids discovered Shape and it's breakout track 'New Noise' only to find their new heroes disbanded. Refused Are F*king Alive! After a 2012 invitation to reform for the Coachella festival, Refused followed it's first shows in 15 years with a triumphant tour, as every kid who had discovered them after death came out to see them reborn. Now comes Freedom, the first album in almost 20 years, on Epitaph/Burning Heart, the label that released The Shape of Punk to Come all those years ago.
