We Must Obey, the new album from Southern California fuzz-rockers FU MANCHU, is now available for streaming at the band’s official MySpace page. It will remain posted until the album’s February 20th street date.

Vocalist, guitarist and founding member Scott Hill describes the record as his “favorite Fu Manchu album from start to finish,” but he also acknowledges that it represents an angrier and more aggressive side of the band than some might expect. “The title We Must Obey is a big ‘Fuck you’ to people who like to tell us what we can and can't do,” he says. “It's not specifically directed at any one person, just at the thought of someone thinking that they know what's best for you, more than you knowing what's best for you. That theme runs through the entire record.

“It's a pissed-off sounding record,” Hill continues. “There are a few ‘quiet’ moments, but those are rare. I grew up on hardcore – punk rock bands from ‘80 to ‘85 – so I definitely think those influences are showing up a little more. There are some straightforward rock riffs on there as well. Overall, it's a very full, heavy and fuzzy-sounding record."

The band’s tenth album (and Century Media/Liquor and Poker debut), We Must Obey was recorded at Hollywood’s Grandmaster Recorders studio (TOOL, NINE INCH NAILS, BLACK CROWES). Finishing touches were added by Gene Grimaldi at Oasis Mastering (VELVET REVOLVER, PENNYWISE, REV. HORTON HEAT).

Here the full tracklisting: 'We Must Obey', 'Knew It All Along', 'Let Me Out', 'Hung Out To Dry', 'Shake It Loose', 'Land Of Giants', 'Between The Lines', 'Lesson', 'Moving In Stereo', 'Didn`t Really Try', 'Sensei Vs. Sensei', 'Never Again' (European bonus track).
