The reformed The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die has shared their first new music since 2021, a new track called "Auguries of Guilt."

Of the new song, vocalist David Bello explains, “The people in stories that get labeled as heroes are often brutal killers, capable of extreme greed and cruelty on behalf of their allies' and their desires. This song tries to smudge historical and present-day conflicts with the emotions of loss and vengeance.”

The band last released Illusory Walls in 2021 (Epitaph).
