Metalcore outfitAugust Burns Redhave a new album titled Season of Surrender coming out this June and it’s with that in mind that they dropped their new single “Sonic Salvation”. The new track features Polaris vocalist Jamie Halls.
Clocking in at just over four minutes, guitarist JB Brubaker said the track was the very first he wrote for the new record.
“‘Sonic Salvation’ was the first song I wrote for Season of Surrender. I set out to write a song that created more space for Jake vocally and leaned a little more into our hardcore influences. I love how this song came out and Jamie’s guest vocal really takes it over the top for me.”
As for the meaning behind it, vocalist Jake Luhrs said it’s a pretty introspective song that seeks to find strength when things get tough.
“‘Sonic Salvation’ is about finding power and strength in music. The fact that music can bring us back to a memory, help us decompress from the outside world and how music is what has created our world that is the metal scene.”
Season of Surrender will be released on June 5 via Fearless Records, but you can preorder your copy today.
