Thirty Seconds To Mars news

Love Lust Faith + Dreams, the new album from Thirty Seconds To Mars, will be released on May 21 by Virgin Records. Jared Leto produced with Steve Lillywhite (U2, The Rolling Stones, Peter Gabriel) co-producing four of the 12 tracks.
 
Jared says that “this is more than an evolution, it’s a brand new beginning. Creatively, we've gone to an entirely new place, which is exciting, unexpected, and incredibly inspiring.”

In partnership with NASA, Thirty Seconds To Mars launched the first single from the new album into space. Literally. The first copy of “Up In The Air” was recently carried aboard the SpaceX cargo mission to the space station.
 
The single got its ground breaking premiere from the astronauts in orbit 230 miles above Earth. Thirty Seconds To Mars stood by at Mission Control/Houston while the track was played and did a Q&A with Tom Marshburn, one of the astronauts aboard the space station.

Fans who pre-order the album on iTunes will instantly receive a download of “Up In The Air.”

Album cover art for Love Lust Faith + Dreams features “Isonicotinic Acid Ethyl Ester” (2010 - 2011) from artist Damien Hirst’s Spot Paintings series. A second Hirst work, which is from the Colour Charts series, will appear on the CD itself. See below for further details regarding the art.
