ZZ TOP: Listen two unpublished songs from newest LA FUTURA


Check out two tracks, "Drive By Lover" and "Threshold Of A Breakdown", which are available only on CD version of the new work ZZ Top's "La Futura"  which is marketed in the U.S. Best Buy stores. La Futura was recorded at The Foambox Recordings in Houston, Texas.

“We thought long and hard about what this album should be,” commented recently Gibbons in a press release. “We wanted to recall the directness of our early stuff but not turn our backs on contemporary technology. The result of this melding of the past and the present is, of course, La Futura.”

"Flyin' High,” appropriately made its world premiere in space, when the then-unfinished song played on board a Soyuz spacecraft during its launch to the International Space Station in June 2011 at the request of NASA astronaut Mike Fossum, a long-time ZZ Top fan and friend.

La Futura is the fifteenth studio album by American rock band ZZ Top, and its first in nine years, following Mescalero.

Here we stand and face the world
Renegades of consternation
Innocent in thought and word
Ready for a new sensation
Block up the dam, close up the well to stop it flowing
Your memory is not preferred
For that is not the way we're going

Sliding away from liberty to lethargy we fall
Subsiding again collapsing from the burden of it all

But time after time we believe in better 
Never let a chance pass us by 
And we're sure we'll never fail to notice
Sign after sign that a change is coming 
Time is running out like the tide 
But we think we're on a march of progress

From ashes we rise to ashes we fall
We cannot disguise our hand in it all

Here we stand and take the blame
We thought that this could last forever
We turned our backs on God again
But everybody longs for heaven

Sliding away from vision to deficiency we fall
Subsiding again collapsing from the burden of it all

But time after time we believe in better 
Never let a chance pass us by 
And we're sure we'll never fail to notice
Sign after sign that a change is coming 
Time is running out like the tide 
But we think we're on a march of progress

Here we stand and face the end
Apathy alive and growing
On independence we depend
But that is not the way we're going

Sliding away from plenty to dependency we fall
Subsiding again collapsing from the burden of it all

But time after time we believe in better 
Never let a chance pass us by 
And we're sure we'll never fail to notice
Sign after sign that a change is coming 
Time is running out like the tide 
But we think we're on a march of progress
But we think we're on a march of progress
