The high-art rock band released its sixth album, Lifeforms, on Friday (Sept. 24) on Rise Records, which delves into everything from the intersection of science and religion (“Restless Souls”) to the quest for intelligent lifeforms in the universe (“Lifeforms”). Next year, DeLonge will make his directorial debut with the release of a new sci-fi film, Monsters of California, as a companion piece to the album.
