New single ahead of album release this month
As post-hardcore hardcore act Capsize gear up to release their sophomore album worldwide (exc. North America), via Rude Records on 22nd July 2016, the quartet have unveiled their latest video single. Featuring Brendan Murphy from Counterparts, the energetic video for track ‘Tear Me Apart’ is below, with vocalist Daniel Wand explaining: “This one goes out to anyone that has ever felt doubted or discouraged by their family or friends, while trying to pursue something that means everything to them.”
The Southern Californian’s album ‘A Reintroduction: The Essence Of All That Surrounds Me’, sees the quartet, completed by Andrew Tamayo on drums and guitarists Ryan Knowles and Nicolas Lopez, follow up on their well-received debut album ‘The Angst In My Veins’with a more distinctly post-hardcore sound. Now incorporating clean vocals throughout, their melodies soar; driving levels of intensity and aggression make way for haunting ambience, all the while interspersed with their signature darkness. Recorded in Atlanta, GA at Glow In The Dark Studios with producer Matt McClellan (The Devil Wears Prada, Being As An Ocean), ‘A Reintroduction…’ pushes the band into new musical territory, while remaining true to their roots. Wand reveals “For this album, I wanted to write lyrics that I felt like I needed to hear, or would have liked to have heard at certain times in my life that I have only just recently worked through enough to put into words. The title represents what the album does for the band, and me personally. It’s a reintroduction of who we are as a band, in reference to the things that have led to this point in my life.”
Following the recent announcement of Japanese live dates in September, the band are gearing up to headline US dates in July, before joining the infamous Warped Tour from July 17th. The band will also make a special appearance at the 2016 Alternative Press Music Awards in Columbus, OH next month.
