{"product_id":"not_your_kingdom","title":"Not Your Kingdom","description":"\u003cp\u003eMadball’s Not Your Kingdom is the New York hardcore institution’s tenth studio album, released through Nuclear Blast on July 24, 2026. The 14-track, 29-minute record is their first full-length in eight years, and it preserves the band’s core formula—hard-charging punk rhythms, thick metallic riffs, street-level toughness, and Freddy Cricien’s commanding bark—while bringing a more reflective edge to its lyrics. Rather than treating survival and loyalty as simple slogans, the album considers personal growth, family, endurance, power, and the effort to keep moving through a hostile world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe opening “Tethered” sets the tone with fast, muscular momentum, followed by the groove-heavy “Flammable” and brief instrumental “Rebelude.” “Rebel Kids,” the lead single, is one of the record’s most anthemic songs, built around a large gang-vocal chorus and a metal-leaning guitar attack, while “Don’t MisStep,” “Clockwork,” “IWI,” and “Stab Wounds” supply its most punishing beatdowns. Elsewhere, “Sunrise,” “Life’s a Mural,” and “Family First” introduce more personal and hopeful notes without softening the band’s directness; closing track “Chase a Dream” ends on an unexpectedly uplifting note. Not Your Kingdom succeeds by sounding unmistakably like Madball—urgent, physical, and built for packed rooms—while showing that the band’s perspective has broadened with time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Album - Jewel Case","offer_id":53924280336698,"sku":"39770","price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-08-18_at_5.57.33_PM.jpeg?v=1787090340","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/not_your_kingdom","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
