BUSH: New Song Available For Free Download

June 23, 2011

A brand new song from the reunited British alternative rock band BUSH is being made available for free download at EA.com. The track "All My Life" will appear on the group's forthcoming album, "The Sea Of Memories", which is due in September.

"We are very excited about music from our forthcoming album, 'The Sea Of Memories', being featured in EA's NHL 12," said BUSH in a statement. "Our first album in a long time comes out this September and we hope you enjoy this first sample, 'All My Life'."

You can now stream the song using the audio player below.

A different BUSH song will be on the soundtrack of the upcoming NHL game. That track will be unveiled on EA.com on July 25 for another exclusive free download and first listen.

BUSH was reactivated after a nine-year hiatus following the release of the group's 2001 album, "Golden State". Singer Gavin Rossdale told The Pulse of Radio that he had just come off the road from touring behind his 2008 solo record, "Wanderlust", and started to work on some new music when BUSH suddenly came back into the picture. "I went right the next day off of tour into the studio to write, and it just dawned on me that really kind of the weakest link in doing these songs was maybe bringing it under my own name," he said. "I felt that the solo thing was cool, but it was more by default than design, and I really was just thinking, 'Man, this should just be why is this not BUSH? I mean, this is crazy.'"

Rossdale formed a band called INSTITUTE and released one album with them in 2005 after BUSH went on hiatus, then released his solo project in 2008.

The current BUSH lineup includes original drummer Robin Goodridge, guitarist Chris Traynor and bassist Corey Britz. Traynor replaced original axeman Nigel Pulsford in 2001 while Britz has stepped in for Dave Parsons.

Rossdale told Billboard that the new album sounds like BUSH but is not necessarily a rehash of the band's multi-platinum 1994 breakthrough, "Sixteen Stone". He explained, "It's tricky, because you want the band to evolve and you want to make songs that people really care about, but you also don't want to repeat yourself. I was mindful of that."
