Palaye Royale have announced details of their forthcoming fourth album, Death or Glory, and shared the collection's first single, Showbiz.

The Las Vegas brothers - vocalist Remington Leith, guitarist Sebastian Danzig and drummer Emerson Barrett - have also revealed an extensive North American tour itinerary, and details of a one-off UK arena show.

Speaking about their new album, the band's follow-up to 2022's Fever Dream, the trio say: “Death or Glory is those split seconds of uncertainty as you are falling to the ground wondering if you will fly or hit the ground. It's where chaos meets harmony and where we find ourselves struggling between ego and self destruction, success and desperation and last but not least death or glory.”

The single, Showbiz, is a cautionary tale about a predatory entertainment industry, with lyrics such as:

"Another man in the Hollywood land with the shady plan
Gonna take advantage of you, who knew
So they kill a million dreams to get a billion streams
Well hey kids, this is showbiz
So they kill another dream, feed on my self-esteem
Well hey kids, this is showbiz"
