Nashville, TN metalcore outfit Chamber have set a March 27th release date through Pure Noise for their third studio album, “this is goodbye…“. In a collective statement, the group said of this new record, which was once again produced by Randy LeBoeuf (Kublai Khan TX, Gideon):
“‘this is goodbye… is Chamber at our most open and instinctive. A lot of this record was written on the spot in Randy’s studio, with no time to overthink what wewere playing. When I think back on putting this record together, I just remember the laughs we had in the studio and how naturally these songs came to be. To be real, we just had a ton of fun and tried to write parts that would get each other stoked.”
A music video directed by Nick Chance (Orthodox, Lorna Shore) for the new single “violins” has just made it out, with guitarist/vocalist Gabe Manuel commenting:
“We almost always write pieces of songs and put them together in the studio, but ‘Violins‘ was one of a few songs on this record that we finished writing pretty far in advance. I was listening heavy to ‘De-Loused‘/’Frances the Mute‘ era The Mars Volta when we were writing this, and the rhythm of the chorus is definitely influenced by that stuff + anime theme song vibes. We all have eclectic music tastes outside of hardcore/metal, and this song fuses all those influences together in a way that I really love.”
