Nails have just announced the forthcoming release of their fourth studio album, Every Bridge Burning.

Their first record in 8 years will feature 10 tracks which were produced by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou at God City Studio. Every Bridge Burning will also mark the debut of Nails' new lineup of drummer Carlos Cruz (Warbringer), bassist Andrew Solis (Despise You, Apparition), and guitarist Shelby Lermo (Ulthar), joining founding guitarist/vocalist Todd Jones.

The album's first single, "Imposing Will," has also just dropped:

Here's what Jones said about the track:

“‘Imposing Will’ is special to the record in that I knew we wanted it to be the opener. We wanted it to have the effect of an urgency; an immediacy in the music itself," says Jones of the track. "When you push play, you get smacked in the face.”

The cover art for Every Bridge Burning was painted by Jef Whitehead who is also known for his musical work as Wrest in such projects as Leviathan and Lurker of Chalice:

Every Bridge Burning will be out on August 8th via Nuclear Blast Records (pre-order).
