As a refresher, word of the album started to circulate back in 2012 as the band teamed up with producer Ross Robinson to work out tracks for the record.
“We’ve probably, in the last 10 years, been in the studio to try and complete the record, I wanna say, seven times, to different studios.
He continued, “We probably have 35 songs recorded instrumentally, and he’s done vocals on them and then thrown the vocals away — done vocals and then thrown it away.
When asked about a potential timeline, Borland added, “I’m not in charge of Fred’s vocals… I’m way done with my parts on the record.
The guitarist continued, “My whole thing is I force things, but I’m happy to make mistakes and get embarrassed and go, ‘Oh, I shouldn’t have done that.’ But I just like to put stuff out.
Reflecting on what he’s seen from the sessions, Borland states, “I will definitely say that the riffs and the music, it’s the best stuff I’ve ever done as a musician, I think.
In the time since, the band has issued the singles “Lightz ,” “Ready to Go” and “Endless Slaughter.” They’ve also toured off-and-on over the years and have more dates booked for the summer with Spiritbox.
