The group commented on the label deal:
“The legacy of Rise is unmatched. The impact of their work has been felt by all of us for as long as we’ve loved music. We’re so excited to work with them on this new era of our band.”
Vocalist Brian Wille also discussed the album:
“There’s some social commentary and a little bit of heartbreak too. I brought the wall down, so I could be more personal than ever before. ‘Our Fates Lie in Tandem’ is not heavy for the sake of being heavy either. We agreed a track doesn’t need to be ‘a walking breakdown’ in order to make an impact. So, you’re getting the lows, the highs, and everything in between. There’s a reason for each element and meaning behind every word.”
The band continued:
“Putting this record together has been an intense, multi-year process that has challenged our existing framework of songwriting. We took no shortcuts in building these songs up to be the best and most cohesive of our career. While it wasn’t quick or easy to make this album, watching and participating in this project, from demos to the final masters, has been such a satisfying and cathartic experience.”
An official video for the first single, “Retributioner,” can be found below. The band also had the following to say about that track:
“We’re told that to get anywhere in life you need to abandon your principles and cut through others as they would to you, fostering a sense of war-mindedness regarding those we compete with, debate with, and don’t agree with. ‘Retributioner’ seeks to dismantle those ideas, even if it means dismantling the structures and systems perpetuating them.”
