Barbarians of California are back and they’ve brought a legend with them. The California rockers just unleashed a brand-new track, aptly titled “A New Song with a Long Title,” featuring none other than Keith Buckley — yes, that Keith Buckley, the former frontman of Every Time I Die and current voice of Many Eyes.
The song is as chaotic and brilliant as you’d hope from that pairing. It’s loud, riff-heavy, and full of swagger — a sonic brawl between desert rock grit and hardcore conviction. The guitars snarl, the drums pound like a stampede, and Buckley’s unmistakable roar cuts through it all like a knife. It’s the kind of track that feels both cinematic and completely unhinged — exactly the kind of energy Barbarians of California have built their name on.
The music video, which dropped alongside the single, is an absolute trip. Shot somewhere between a fever dream and a desert hallucination, it features the band ripping through the track with Buckley front and center, looking like a man possessed. There’s dust, chaos, sweat, and just enough absurdity to remind you that the Barbarians never take themselves too seriously — even when they’re melting faces.
Collaborating with Keith Buckley feels like a natural fit; both parties share a flair for the dramatic and a love for pushing their sound right to the edge of madness. “A New Song with a Long Title” is proof that Barbarians of California aren’t just another rock band — they’re a movement, built on volume, attitude, and a total disregard for the rules.
The track and video are out now across all platforms. If you like your rock loud, fast, and a little unhinged, it’s time to hit play.
