Mötley Crüe's upcoming three-song Cancelled EP will be the group's first collection of newly recorded music since 2019, and their first since welcoming guitarist John 5. Aside from the title track still to be released, Cancelled will also feature their recent hit single “Dogs of War,” and a cover of the Beastie Boys’ epic party anthem, “Fight For Your Right.”
“It was really great getting in the studio and working on some tracks together,” The Crüe offered in a joint statement. “What started out as a couple demo ideas turned into this EP produced by Bob Rock. We look forward to getting back into the studio again soon and writing more new music as well.”
