August 13, 2013 • Leave a Comment

Phoenix, AZ's blessthefall have teamed up with Billboard to premiere a full stream of their new album Hollow Bodies, which is set to release on August 20th.

"There are a lot of "firsts" on Hollow Bodies. First time ever co-writing with other musicians, first time having guest vocalists (Jesse Barnett, Jake Luhrs, Lights), first time having live strings orchestrated to our music and definitely the first time having a piano solo," notes lead singer Beau Bokan. "I honestly couldn't pick a favorite song if you asked me to. After listening to it so many times every single song is it's own beast and each song can truly stand alone."

Head over to Billboard HERE to read more and to give the album a listen.

In support of the new album, the band has announced a massive U.S. trek this Nov/Dec with friends August Burns Red. The tour features additional support from Defeater and Beartooth and is set to kick off on November 1st in Philadelphia, PA. See full routing below.

ABOUT BLESSTHEFALL: Beau Bokan (lead vocals), Eric Lambert (guitar), Jared Warth (bass/vocals), Matt Traynor (drums), Elliott Gruenberg (guitar) - A leading force in the metalcore genre, Arizona quintet blessthefall have spent years taking their message globally; each body of work more impressive than the last. Their last album Awakening (2011) achieved their best sales to date hitting #32 on the Billboard Top 200. Noted as Alternative Press' Most Anticipated album of 2013, the band commissioned producer Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, The Devil Wears Prada, Of Mice & Men) to record new album Hollow Bodies. Never before recruiting outsiders, the band enlisted the help of friends to feature 3 guest vocal spots on Hollow Bodies, including Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red, Jesse Barnett of Stick To Your Guns, and electro-rock sensation Lights. The band just wrapped up a massive summer on the entire Vans Warped Tour, which adds to an already impressive tour resume that includes runs with As I Lay Dying, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine, and August Burns Red. Throughout the album's 11 charging tracks, Hollow Bodies is blessthefall's reinvigorating approach to an already impressive catalog and career.
