Invent Animate announce new album ‘Heavener’
INVENT ANIMATE have announced a new album!
Titled Heavener, the upcoming album from the American metalcore band is the follow-up to 2020’s Greyview, and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via UNFD.
The upcoming album was self-produced in conjunction with Landon Tewers [THE PLOT IN YOU], alongside mixing and mastering from Daniel Braunstein [SPIRITBOX, SILENT PLANET, DAYSEEKER].
Speaking about the upcoming album, drummer Trey Celaya says, “a lot of our previous material is really grief-stricken, and I think now there’s been a subtle shift [in Heavener] where we’re truly getting that off our chest but in a more constructive and empowering way. I personally felt like I’d run into a bit of a wall just writing about the most dramatic or sad experiences I’d ever had, I wanted to move on. We’ve had fans respond saying that a song really connected with them and I think that reminded us that’s we are being heard…so now we’re not so much writing from a place of just purging what’s bottled up, but wanting to demonstrate that you can work through it and move to the next level.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Immolation Of Night. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming album; following on from Elysium, which was released back in November last year.
Speaking about the new song, drummer Celaya says, “while searching for inspiration to write this song, I had grown tired of recounting past trauma and things that have hurt me and still affect me. It was making me feel powerless, and I wanted to take that power back and approach from a different angle. This song was born of a realization that all of my suffering has actually made me incredibly resilient and grounded, and I am not the weak person that I sometimes feel that I am. In reality, I have a certain confidence in life that I wouldn’t have if not for my losses and failures. They’ve given me a lot of good characteristics and shaped me into who I am today, and it’s a person I’m proud of.”
