Metalcore outfit Walls Of Jericho have freshly debuted a music video for their brand new song “The Ascent“. Mateo Torres served as the director for the visual component for this track from the Midwestern outfit. As revealed yesterday, the band have set a November 13th release date for their first new studio album in a decade, “System Error: Humanity“.
Vocalist Candace Buckingham said the following of that record:
“‘System Error: Humanity‘ is a raw, unapologetic, and most aggressive record to date. We set out to capture the chaos, intensity, and raw energy of our live show rather than chase perfection. Lyrically, it’s a rebellion against the modern forces that fracture identity: comparison, conformity, distraction, and the endless pressure to perform instead of live. At its core, this album is about reclaiming your attention, owning your choices, and becoming who you were before the world told you who to be. Kill the noise. Reclaim yourself.”
As for this new single, she added:
“‘The Ascent‘ is a crushing blend of dissonant riffs, massive breakdowns, and raw intensity. Lyrically, it’s about confronting yourself one hard truth at a time, shedding ego, silencing the noise, and discovering that real strength isn’t found at the summit, but in the discipline and honesty it takes to climb. Because growth begins where comfort ends.”
Several guest appearances are scheduled to appear on “System Error: Humanity“, including Lamb Of God vocalist Randy Blythe and The Red Chord frontman Guy Kozowyk. Blythe himself is also credited as the producer on “The Ascent“, while Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou is credited with producing the album overall. Pre-orders for the record are available now through lnk.to/WallsOfJericho-SystemErrorHumanity.
