New God's debut LP, Motorcar, was over 5 years in the making and was released in 2012 to much critical praise. The follow up, 2014's "Firework", was written and partially recorded in an abandoned racquetball court and released via Yellow K Records. New God has been touring in support of "Firework" throughout 2014-15 and have recently began work on their third full-length album.
