Of Mice & Men have released a video for their track Pain – taken from upcoming album Cold World.

The band’s fourth album and follow-up to 2014’s Restoring Force is released on September 9. The album artwork and tracklist can be viewed below, along with the promo for Pain.

Pain is available as an instant download with pre-orders of the album.

Of Mice & Men previously revealed that 14-year-old fan Cassy will appear on the album. The youngster has terminal brain cancer and her handclaps will be heard on one of the album’s tracks.

They said: “The relationship and history between Cassy, Austin Carlile and the band has been a rich one over the years. Today was a much needed day for Cassy, her mom, cousin and family, as was it for all involved.

“Today was a day to forget all the stresses and problems of the world and to be surrounded by nothing but pure love, happiness and joy. Today Cassy was disease-free – today Cassy was ‘living the dream.’”

Cold World is produced by David Bendeth, who the band also worked with on Restoring Force.

Of Mice & Men have a string of tour dates to come, including a European tour kicking off in late September.
