Interloper announce debut album ‘Search Party’
INTERLOPER have announced their debut album!
Titled, Search Party, the upcoming album from the progressive metal band is the debut full-length and is scheduled for release in June this year via Nuclear Blast Records.
The album was produced by the band and vocalist Andrew Virrueta‘s brother, Joey Virrueta. Drums were recorded at Big Bad Sound LA by Jack Ruley and Zach Fisher, with the mixing and mastering completed once more by Andrew’s brother Joey Virrueta. The album artwork was created by Caelan Stokkermans.
About the album vocalist/guitarist Andrew Virrueta comments, “Were so overjoyed to show you all what have been working on over the past couple of years. These songs all individually represent a unique and distinct time in our musical explorations, interpersonal relationships, and abilities as musicians; individually, and as a cohesive group. There’s nothing quite as satisfying to me as seeing them all displayed on a record together in one presentation. We hope you enjoy every song on this album as much as we do, as there is something different and special to offer from song to song. Sincerest thanks to our fans, friends, and families for being right here with us every step of the way. “
Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming release; Drift.
About the single, drummer Aaron Stechauner states, “In terms of what song to give you all as an introduction to Search Party as an album, this first single, Drift, is a very cheeky choice. While it does tie together who we are and what we are trying to say, I don’t think it will leave anyone going ‘yeah, this is what I expected to get from the album after hearing Drift.’ It tells you what we are capable of giving you, without giving away at all what we actually are about to give you.”
