Frontwoman Brody Dalle has been teasing new activity from the L.A.-based punk band in 2018.

L.A. punk rockers The Distillers have returned with their first new song in 15 years, “Man vs. Magnet.” The song is the first music since the band’s 2003 effort, Coral Fang.

The B-side to “Man vs. Magnet,” “Blood in Gutters,” was originally released as a solo single by Dalle in 2014.

Earlier this year, Dalle teased new Distillers activity with an Instagram post that was captioned: “I don't think you're ready for this jelly #studio Fuck yeah #nashguitars." It was followed by another post with a video and a caption that read: “THE DISTILLERS 2018.”
