Andrew W.K. has shared his new song “Music is Worth Living For.” Listen below. It’s the first single from his first new album in nine years, You’re Not Alone. It arrives March 2. This past September, W.K. said of the album: “I’m going for the sound of pure, unadulterated power; every emotion, every thought, every experience, every sensation, every fear, every joy, every clarity, every confusion, every up, every down... all extruded and concentrated into one thick syrup of super life-force feeling, and then psychically amplified by the celebratory spirit of glorious partying.” In 2009, Andrew W.K. put out full-lengths Gundam Rock (released only in Japan) and 55 Cadillac (an album of solo piano improvisations).
