Mötley Crüe share their new single, “Dogs of War”

Mötley Crüe have dropped the single “Dogs of War,” their first new song in five years. The track also marks the Crüe’s first release since their new guitarist John 5 joined the band, following the retirement of Mick Mars. The band last released new music for the soundtrack to their 2019 biopic The Dirt – which also included the Machine Gun Kelly collaboration, The Dirt (Est. 1981).

Bassist Nikki Sixx says of ‘Dogs of War’: “It’s always great getting back in the studio with the guys in the band. We know you’re gonna like this one.”  Frontman Vince Neil adds: “I think it’s classic Crüe, if you go back and listen to the first record [1981’s Too Fast For Love]. To me, it goes back to our roots. I think the fans are going to dig it. It’s a rock‘n’roll tune for partying, screamin’ and yellin’ along. That’s what Mötley Crüe is about anyway. It doesn’t seem like any time has passed. We’re still just a good rock ‘n’ roll band.”

“Dogs of War” was released alongside an accompanying video, which features animated, anthropomorphic doberman dogs and pigs in suits. Said Neil of the visual: “We’re the Dogs Of War, we’re the b*stards. We’re in battle with everybody, all the time.”
