American heavy metal band Y&T has announced that they have signed to Frontiers Records for thier new studio album, "Facemelter." This will be the bands first studio album in thirteen years and will be released on May 21st.

"What a great feeling to dive back into making new Y&T music," states frontman Dave Meniketti. "After being away from it for this long, the anticipation of writing a new CD worth of material was, at first, a bit scary, but as soon as we started up I was happy to find how natural it was to get right back in it again. I think we're going to have to keep this up, because musically and emotionally, we still have a lot to say!"

"It's ridiculous that we waited so long to make a new record," adds bassist Phil Kennemore. "In creating new music for Facemelter, I rediscovered the most important thing for any artist, and that is to continue creating . . . it feeds my soul. My hope for Facemelter is that people might just find a few new favorite Y&T songs."

The tracklisting for the album is as follows:

"Prelude"
"On With The Show"
"One Life"
"Shine On"
"Wild Child"
"I Want Your Money"
"I’m Coming Home, If You Want Me"
"Hot Shot"
"How Long"
"Gonna Go Blind"
"Don’t Bring Me Down"
"Blind Patriot"
"Losing My Mind" *

* Bonus track included on the first pressing in digipak

loved old y&t in the 80's. everyone knows them for "summertime girls" but they had so much more great music. hope the new album holds up to the standard.

Actually, I thought "Meanstrek" was the better song.
