Wow. Seriously, how fucking bad ass is the new Fu Manchu album cover? If the tracks within are half as boss as the cover, I think we're all in for a treat come April 29, when Gigantoid comes out via Fu's own label, At The Dojo Records. Our friends at Booklyn Vegan have unearthed a sample track off of the upcoming release. Dig it: http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2014/03/fu_manchu_ready.html
