Capstan announce new album ‘Separate’

CAPSTAN have announced a new album!

Titled Separate, the upcoming album from the Florida-based post-hardcore band is their second full-length album and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via Fearless Records.

As the world locked down in 2020, the band took advantage of their time off the road to construct, deconstruct, and reconstruct songs for what would become the upcoming album. They went into the studio with producer Machine [LAMB OF GOD, FALL OUT BOY] with one goal in mind: To make a record with no filler and all bangers. Having recently gone through a divorce, it was a tough time for guitarist Joe Mabry. Most of the songs are about the depression and reflection he experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have shared a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming album; shades of us. “Several songs on the album are about my ex before we split up, and this is one of them,” says Mabry about the song. “There’s a dynamic shift. You’ve got a modern pop edge, but it’s still quite heavy. This is one of the flagship songs for the record. It’s about coming to a really bitter realisation no matter how much you love a person or care, there’s all of this other fucked up shit in the way. Ultimately, you know it’s not going to work out.”
