Details on the Upcoming Album
Employed for maintenance They tease their new album Fallen Star, set to release on April 25 through Spinefarm, sharing the title track as its last single.
Thematic Exploration of “Fallen Star”
The new song delves into the struggle of watching someone close to you fight their battles. “Fallen Star” symbolizes the pain of witnessing a loved one’s destructive behavior, as the vocalist Justin Jones explains: “This is about helplessly observing someone you care for continuing to fly too close to the sun without learning from their mistakes. Sometimes, stepping back and loving them from a distance is necessary. We believed this should be the title track because it aligns thematically with the overarching themes of the new record, addressing bad habits and overcoming life’s challenges.”
Produced and mixed by Lewis Jones, the album features guest performances from Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage on “On the Side of Whom You Are?” and Serena Cherry from Schwen on “Last Laughter.” The record also includes the previous single “Atonement,” featuring Will Ramos from Lorna Shore, showcasing both his signature growls and his first clean vocals in the album’s history.
