De Amerikaanse progressive metal band After The Burial heeft vandaag hun eerste nieuwe muziek in 4 jaar uitgebracht met de release van de dubbele single “Embrace The Infinity” die bestaat uit twee nieuwe nummers – “Nothing Gold” en “Death Keeps Us From Living”.
Nadenkend over de aangrijpende nieuwe single die de unieke ervaring van de band met de COVID-19-lockdowns beschrijft, onthult zanger Anthony Notarmaso het volgende:
These songs were written during a hard time in my life. I went to a place that some of us have been before, and some have never come back from. They move on the impermanence of life, that nothing lasts forever and giving in to the loss of control we no longer have when something dear to us ends. But they also remind us that fear, and the past can’t keep us from living.
After the world turned upside down, like a lot of people, we found ourselves searching for inspiration. Exploring different avenues to express our creativity seemed to leave us lost. Instead, we found solace in going back to our roots and writing what we know and love. These songs are undeniably After The Burial, but with a modern twist. We hope you enjoy this next journey with us.
Over de tweede track “Death Keeps Us From Living” voegt hij eraan toe:
Fear will keep you from living your life and going after your dreams. This song is about healing and moving on. I think that’s why After The Burial is still a band. We’re resilient and all we can do is keep moving forward. If my pain can help even one person, I will make that sacrifice for the rest of my life.
De band legt momenteel de laatste hand aan hun nog niet aangekondigde zevende studioalbum en begint binnenkort aan een grote Noord-Amerikaanse tournee met Spiritbox en Intervals.
