As I Lay Dying have dropped the veil of secrecy surrounding their eighth studio album. That effort has been titled “Through Storms Ahead” and will receive a November 15th release through Napalm Records. A third single has just launched from the album titled “We Are The Dead“. It features guest spots from Slaughter To Prevail vocalist Alex Terrible and Chelsea Grin/Darko singer Tom Barber. Director Tom J. Flynn helmed the below music video that accompanies the track.
Guitarist/vocalist Phil Sgrosso commented:
“‘We Are The Dead‘ represents the more brutal territory from our new album, spotlighting our thrashier tendencies that we still enjoy mixing in amongst our more melodic sound. I think this is the meanest we’ve ever gone in terms of aggression, and who better to join us than two of deathcore’s finest, Alex Terrible of Slaughter to Prevail and Tom Barber from Chelsea Grin. Shout out to our third-time video collaborator Tom Flynn for jumping in with us and pulling off another visually creative undertaking for the track.”
“Through Storms Ahead” is the first studio album to see a release from the San Diego, CA-based metalcore outfit since vocalist Tim Lambesis and guitarist/vocalist Phil Sgrosso welcomed ex-Unearth members Ken Susi (guitars) and Nick Pierce (drums), and current bassist/vocalist Ryan Neff (of Miss May I), into their roster.
