After promising fans new music in 2026, Massive Attack have finally confirmed a new single.

"Boots on the Ground," which will also feature singer-songwriter Tom Waits, drops on Thursday (April 16).

The group announced the news via their Instagram account on Tuesday, seemingly sharing a snippet of the new track as well.

The song marks the English duo's first new music in six years. They released their three-song conceptual EP, Eutopia, in 2020, which they recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic quarantine.

The trip hop group, who are currently touring in Europe, released their latest full-length LP, Heligoland, in 2010.

Meanwhile, the collaboration marks Waits' first new music in eight years. The musician released his latest album, Bad as Me, in 2011.
