De Britse post-hardcore band Trash Boat heeft een nieuw album genaamd “Heaven Can Wait” aangekondigd dat op 4 oktober en een video uitgebracht voor de nieuwe single “Be Someone” waarop ook Eric Vanlerberghe van I Prevail te horen is.
Zanger Tobi Duncan zegt het volgende over de samenwerking:
Eric’s wife was actually a fan of Trash Boat, which was how we ended up touring with them in the first place. We got on great on tour and he joined us on stage for a few guest spots throughout. During the tour, we asked if he’d be up for guesting on a new song and he was down.
Though things took a turn in Dublin, we were out drinking and a drunk guy was trying to fight everyone. He started tossing his own girlfriend around, which is where Eric stepped in and before you knew it, the guy turned on Eric. Eric shoved him to the floor and walked away, as he did the guy tried to sucker punch Eric from behind. That’s where I got involved and where it came to an end. The song was already written at this point, but the subject matter is poetically relevant.
Over het album zegt hij:
Life is pretty chaotic. The world is pretty chaotic. I’m pretty chaotic, and this album is every piece of me and us as a band.
Welcome to the world of Heaven Can Wait: a knotty, gnarled riddle of a record, at one turn deeply introspective, full of deep-seated questions, anxiety and despondency; at the next fuelled by a righteous rage towards an unjust, uncaring world stuck in a downward spiral.
