Power Trip have been in the studio recently (see below) with producer Jacob Hansen (The Black Dahlia Murder, Arch Enemy). This past March the Texan crossover band signed a deal with Blue Grape Music. These recent sessions, which were taking place as recently as month, will represent the band’s first body of work since the 2020 death of their frontman Riley Gale from an accidental overdose. Skourge‘s Seth Gilmore has since taken on the vocal duties for the group.
