Letlive plan to launch their fourth album If I’m The Devil... with an exhibition featuring works of art inspired by the record’s 11 tracks.

Frontman Jason Butler says the event will take place on June 8, the day the follow-up to 2013’s The Blackest Beautiful is released.

Butler tells TeamRock Radio: “I’m gonna curate this art show. We’re gonna choose 11 artists, one for each track on the record.

“Each artist gets assigned a song and the lyrics and however they feel inspired by the song, they will create a piece.

“The art space is booked right now and on the day of release we’ll be having this art show for people to experience.

“There will be listening stations at every piece so people can hear the record and see the record and see what someone else saw when they were listening to that song.”

More details on the art show will be released in due course.

Letlive have released the tracks Good Mourning, America, Another Offensive Song and Reluctantly Dead from the album.

Butler also guests on the second episode of Metal Hammer: In Residence on Spotify, which is available now and also features interviews with Gojira and WWE star Triple H. A Spotify Premium account is required to hear the interview segments.
