Colepitz have premiered a new video for their new song “Knock.” That track is from the band’s newly released album “The Time Between.”
Vocalist Rob Korhonen commented on the album:
“It’s been a long road to get here. Over a decade of hard work, blood, sweat and tears went into the making of this record. All we’ve ever dreamed about was making a truly great record, and this is us taking our best blue-collar shot. It was a full team effort. Jonathan Wyman, Dave Gutter, Darren Elder from Halo Recording Studio, Sky Van Hoff, Jens Dreesen, Munsey Ricci on radio, Jon Freeman, and artists Alyssa Kubitz and Dave Minalli all helped bring this together the way it has. The ethos behind the Colepitz name is to play every note as though it could be your last, and we definitely hit that on this group of songs.”
Guitarist Ray Suhy continued:
“We released ‘No Tomorrow Tonight‘ in 2010, played a few shows, and then Rob moved away to Vermont. We stayed in touch and always talked about doing more music, but nothing took shape. A couple of years back Rob started writing songs with Dave Gutter, and I was really into what they were coming up with. We kept going, but it still didn’t feel like Colepitz yet.
It wasn’t until I reshaped their version of ‘Reaper‘ that Rob and I looked at each other and were like… fuck, this is Colepitz. I think in a way we weren’t trying to go back to that place, because for us it’s a very special and heavy place emotionally. It requires full dedication and carries a lot of the weight of the past with it. At that point, though, we dove in full steam.”
Drummer Shane Kinney added:
“It is hard for me to come to a definitive conclusion, because I look at it from the perspective of a fan of the band and a fan of the music. Then there is the other perspective, which is that of me being the one who actually performed on it. At this point, I really look at it more as a fan. When I listen to it, it just sounds so fresh to me, and so emotive, and so groovy in the heaviest possible way. Making this album was really a joy and a privilege I have not taken for granted, but listening to it is even better. The more I hear it, the more I love it, and I hope you do too.”
