Haynes added:

“We’re nearing 8 years since I last performed in the States or Canada. I couldn’t be more thrilled to get out there with the guys and put on a hell of a show for both legacy and new Allegaeon fans.”

Allegaeon To Be Joined By Original Vocalist Ezra Haynes On Upcoming European/UK Tour

Posted by caemanamelio on

Original Allegaeon vocalist Ezra Haynes will be joining the band on their fall European/UK tour. He will be filling the void left by Riley McShane, who recently exited the group.

Allegaeon commented:

“With the departure of Riley McShane, we are thrilled to be joined by our former vocalist Ezra Haynes on our upcoming European tour alongside Rivers Of Nihil, Fallujah, Inferi, and Harbinger.

Ezra recorded and toured extensively with us on our first three albums, and we are so excited to tour with him once more.”

Haynes added:

“Going overseas and playing for Allegaeon fans has always been the piece missing out of my personal Allegaeon puzzle. A similar feeling to an unfinished task. It has been pretty surreal receiving this opportunity 7+ years after my much needed departure. I am very excited for this run and I hope I’m able to meet so many long-time Allegaeon fans. Thanks again to the boys for the opportunity! See ya out there!”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Vocalist Riley McShane has announced his departure from Allegaeon. A replacement has yet to be revealed.

McShane issued the following statement:

“I am no longer a member of the music project Allegaeon. I wish the remaining members nothing but the best in their careers – I have nothing but admiration & respect for their musical abilities.

To our fans – I’m sorry if this news causes heavy hearts in any of you. Allegaeon, however, has always been able to find new members with talent, creativity, and fire in their bellies. I’m sure whoever replaces me behind the microphone will take the band in a fantastic creative direction.

To the friends I’ve made along the way on this journey – you are loved so dearly and my gratitude for your support is immeasurable. I look forward to keeping in touch and staying close as always.

The rest of the band will still be touring in EU this November – make sure to buy a ticket, buy some merch, and support them & the rest of the bands however you can.

Thank you Allegaeon for the years. Good luck and be well.”

Allegaeon Premiere “Of Beasts And Worms” Music Video

Posted by caemanamelio on

Allegaeon have premiered a new video for their new song “Of Beasts And Worms.” This track is from the band’s new album “Damnum,” which will be released on February 25.

Riley McShane commented:

“This newest single ‘Of Beasts And Worms‘ is about finding a place of inner quiet, a safe haven to explore your thoughts and escape from the anxieties of your life. This lyrical intention is paired with a depiction of disparity and tiredness with the world around you and the stressors that contribute to the deafening silence of the mundane.

In the music video, we showcase a more physical – and graphic – display of this thought process where the escape from the daily grind is manifested into a willing self-sacrifice. Though a dramatization, this concept of sacrifice to find your own personal peace can be applied to something less tangible and played an important role in my own process while writing the lyrics for Damnum. Thank you for watching and listening, we hope you enjoy it.”

“As an introduction to our new album, ‘Damnum‘, we are thrilled to present ‘Into Embers‘. This song embodies the dark and fitful nature of this album by bringing to the table elements of ourselves as a band and as individual musicians that we have been waiting to share with you all for a long, long time. As always, we are excited for our listeners to join us as we step forward into new landscapes – continuing to push the boundaries of our music further and further – and we are eager to experience the unveiling of ‘Damnum‘ together over these next few months.”

He also added the following about the album:

“My hope with these lyrics is to have them be relatable to listeners and show them that they’re not alone when they’re experiencing the gamut of negative emotions – someone else is out there feeling the same way.”
