Reunited noise rock veterans The Jesus Lizard have released another standalone single, "Westside." The track follows "Cost Of Living" and marks the second single from their comeback album Rack, their first full-length in 26 years, which dropped last September.

Guitarist Duane Denison explained, 

'Westside' ties in with 'Cost of Living,' with both tracks subconsciously influenced by Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story. Hence the title.

Vocalist David Yow added: 

The line '…give him back his arm' was inspired by a scene in David Lynch's Lost Highway where Robert Blake's character demands, 'Give me back my phone.'
