Lit have revealed they will release their long-awaited seventh studio album, Tastes Like Gold on June 17, 2022 Via Round Hill Records. Lead guitarist Jeremy Popoff says, “We wanted to get back to the old school Lit sound with a modern day approach to the production.
“It took a minute to get our heads in the right place, especially with all of the craziness going on in the world. We started writing and making demos with Carlo Colasacco and YOUTHYEAR and we knew we had tapped into the vibe we were looking for. Tastes Like Gold is the album we wanted to make.” Tastes Like Gold, produced by Carlo Colasacco, YOUTHYEAR & Lit features No Doubt’s Adrian Young, Butch Walker and American Authors is available for pre-order HERE in black vinyl, gold vinyl and CD format.
The band have also released a new track for fans from Tastes Like Gold with, “Kicked Off The Plane” HERE The autobiographical “Kicked Off The Plane” follows “Yeah Yeah Yeah”- HERE (live performance video HERE & official video HERE) which was the first single from Tastes Like Gold.
