Nashville, TN-based nü-metalcore group Orthodox have now confirmed the details for their next studio album, “A Door Left Open“. That Randy LeBoeuf (Jesus Piece, Kublai Khan TX) produced outing was recently confirmed for a June 06th release date via Century Media. The song “Searching For A Pulse” has just been issued from it. As for the album’s title, a press release summed it up as follows:
‘Picture this: You get home—the same home you’ve come home to for as long as you remember, taking the same road with the same shadows cast from those familiar tree—and though the temperature feels appropriately crisp in the evening air, you notice there’s a bit more bite to it right before realizing the light on your porch also cuts through more sharply. The inside’s shine pierces the outside’s darkness: A Door Left Open.
On A Door Left Open, Orthodox capture the sense of unease and full-on dread one would feel having their comfort and routine violated. What got in—or what got out?’
Addressing this second single, vocalist Adam Easterling shared:
“This is about a reoccurring dream I would get every time we left for tour that my house was burning down and I couldn’t make it home in time to save it. I tried to write something that encapsulates an overall fear and eventual submission to being powerless.”
A trio of guests appear on this record, including Comeback Kid frontman Andrew Neufeld on the previously released “Commit To Consequence“. Elsewhere on the album are guest spots from Mastodon drummer/vocalist Brann Dailor and Boundaries singer Matt McDougal.
