SPIRIT ADRIFT have announced a new EP!

Titled Forge Your Future, the upcoming EP from the American heavy metal band is the follow-up to 2020’s Enlightened In Eternity, and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via Century Media Records.

On the upcoming EP, guitarist/vocalist Nate Garrett and drummer Marcus Bryant are joined by Preston Bryant on synthesizers. The group will be joined by Sonny DeCarlo on bass in live settings moving forward. With Ryan Bram engineering and the legendary producer Zeuss on mixing/mastering, the band intend to showcase their tightest songwriting yet.

Speaking about the upcoming EP, guitarist/vocalist Nate Garrett says, “on March 1, 2020, I relocated to the woods outside of Austin, Texas. Two weeks later, everything was locked down. I turned to the thing that has helped me navigate difficult situations for most of my life: writing music. I wrote and demoed a ton of songs over the course of the pandemic. The songs on this EP are the best of the bunch. Marcus, Preston, and I recorded these in March of 2021 at Homewrecker Recording Studio with Ryan Bram at the helm. Zeuss handled mixing and mastering, after lengthy discussions about Martin Birch, Tom Allom, CROWBAR, and how important it is to carry forth the essence and spirit of heavy metal. Special thanks to our friend Cody Davis for the brilliant title. These songs, and this band, represent persevering through difficult times, staying true to your innermost self, and celebrating the life-affirming power of metal. We can’t wait to see you all live and in the flesh, in the meantime we hope you enjoy the tunes.”
