Within The Ruins have debuted their new single, “Death Of The Rockstar“, of which guitarist Joe Cocchi stated:
“‘Death Of The Rockstar‘ stems from our distaste for the current state of the music industry. The song is straight forward and speaks for itself. We live in an era where mindlessness and fads now trump true art and creativity. The music industry is polluted. Please enjoy.”
It’s the first track to emerge from their new album, “Halfway Human“, which itself will receive a March 03rd release on eOne Music with Long Branch Records handling the European territory. Cocchi commented of the album, which he himself produced the majority of:
“The writing process was a bit different for this album. We took a step back and kind of reviewed some of our older material. Typically we’d rush and blast out a group of songs and then hit the studio. At the time it felt right. And It had a more organic feel. Now because of a combination of maturity and honestly just feeling sick of the same old formula, we really focused on creating something different sounding.”
