Remember when Protest the Hero threw crowdfunding into the eyes of all of metal when their Indiegogo campaign smashed through its goal of 125,000 in a day, and finished just under a huge sum of 350,000? Remember when they announced that in the absence of their drummer, who left the band, Chris Adler filled in and brought with him his drum style that, according to PtH, added a much more metal vibe to the new record? Remember when, seemingly in spite of the successful Indiegogo campaign, Protest the Hero signed licensing deals with multiple record labels to distribute and promote their new album. Remember when 6 months passed since the successful Indiegogo campaign and still no details surfaced about the album? Of course you do, and finally, we have the details we’ve been craving.
Protest the Hero’s extremely highly anticipated 4th studio album will be titled “Volition” and will be released October 29th. In November, the band will embark on a world tour in support of their new album. The multiple licensing deals that the band has signed will allow “Volition” to be distributed all over physically and digitally. Here’s to it being on Spotify, please. Keep an eye out for more details surrounding this one, and hopefully, soon, new music.
