After a six-year hiatus since the release of Atonement in 2019, the band is ready to make a triumphant return with an album that promises to push their sound into new territories while staying true to their roots.
This Consequence is already creating buzz among fans, with its striking blend of raw emotion, aggressive riffs, and melodic elements. The album features ten new tracks, including the previously released singles “Forever Aligned” and “I Believe,” which have given listeners a taste of what’s to come. Fans can expect an album that explores a wide range of themes, from personal struggles to reflections on society and human connection.
Vocalist Jesse Leach described the album as an emotional reflection of the band’s journey over the past few years. “This album is a combination of everything the past five years have thrown at us, as a band, as humans, and as a society,” Leach explained. “It’s a journey of growth, pain, and ultimately, hope.”
