Failure, one of the most influential bands of the 90s, recently announced their newest album, Location Lost, out April 24th. To celebrate the album’s release, they are heading on tour and will stop to play at Masquerade – Hell in Atlanta, GA on 5/6.

Location Lost is Failure’s seventh studio album and their fourth since reuniting in 2014 after a 17-year hiatus. One of the most influential bands of the 90s, Failure has inspired many peers and younger stars, including Hayley Williams who is featured on the album. Recorded after the completion of the recent Hulu/Disney+ documentary ‘Every Time You Lose Your Mind,’ Location Lost doesn’t arrive as a victory lap or a nostalgia exercise. Instead, it sounds like a band actively negotiating where — and who — they are now. The album showcases a focused, modern and ever-evolving vision of Failure’s utterly unique sound.

Failure’s promising rise was derailed by drug addiction and record company inertia by the late-90s, but the trio left a profound imprint that transcended their affiliation with the LA alt-rock scene. Directed by the band’s frontman Ken Andrews, the doc has been a decade in the making. The film features interviews with David Dastmalchian, Margaret Cho, Hayley Williams, Jason Schwartzman, Tommy Lee, Maynard James Keenan, Butch Vig and more.
