Stray From The Path announce new live album ‘Smash ‘Em Up: Live In Europe 2019’

STRAY FROM THE PATH have announced a new live album!

The new live album, titled Smash ‘Em Up: Live In Europe 2019, captures the band doing what they do best and will be their first release at their new home at UNFD.

Speaking about the new live album, the band says, “we’ve wanted to do a live record for years now, but the stars really never aligned for it. An opportunity presented itself on our latest tour supporting WHILE SHE SLEEPS, and we were fortunate enough to be able to make it happen. This album takes places across Mainland Europe and the United Kingdom, with each song performed in some of our favourite cities on Earth. This record is live, unedited, no backing tracks, and all songs are performed and written by the people in this band. Thank you to Julien Delcroix, Florent Salfati, Moritz Hartmann, Daniel Gray, UNFD and Sumerian Records for their assistance in making this happen. All of the band’s royalties from this live album are going to be donated to the Hardcore Help Foundation in perpetuity. More to come.”

Alongside the announcement of the live album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the album; First World Problem Child (Live in London, England). The track features a guest cameo of ARCHITECTS‘ Sam Carter.
