The Ghost Inside announce new album ‘Searching For Solace’

THE GHOST INSIDE have announced a new album!

Titled Searching For Solace, the upcoming album from the American metalcore band is the follow-up to 2020’s self-titled album, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Epitaph Records.

The upcoming album features production from Dan Braunstein [SPIRITBOX, DAYSEEKER] who took the reins on most of the record, with other tracks handled by Cody Quistad [WAGE WAR], Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland [AUGUST BURNS RED, BLOODYWOOD].

Nine years removed from the horrific bus crash that forever changed their trajectory, the band have learned an esoteric truth about tranquillity. As the axiom says, ‘it’s the journey, not the destination’ – a theme explored throughout the band’s dynamic sixth album.

“People always ask me how I remain positive,” vocalist Jonathan Vigil muses. “I’m realizing now that there’s never really a time where you reach that point of ‘happiness.’ It’s a constant journey. I know that life is hills and valleys. You must be willing to embrace new things, stand up for yourself, and adapt. Because the goalposts just move further away. The search for solace never ends.”

“There’s more singing and song structure than on the previous album, but there are also some of the heaviest songs we’ve done,” notes bassist Jim Riley. “We really know who we are, and we also feel comfortable stepping into the future. This is a new chapter, but it’s not disconnected from what the band sounded like before. It’s more of an extension of it. We’re excited by it.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, THE GHOST INSIDE have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Wash It Away. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Death Grip and Earn It.

Speaking about the new song, Vigil says, “it’s really hard to break everything down, start over and rebuild. Whether that is a relationship, schooling, a career or a business venture. After dedicating so much time to something, it can be scary to lose it and start over.”
