“The ballad of the album, 'Forest' embodies the sorrow of losing a loved one, trying to cope with such a profound loss, while occasionally feeling that person's presence around you and asking for a sign,” explains the band. “It is a topic very relatable to people, as we will all at some point experience the great loss of a parent, child, sibling, spouse, or dear friend.”
“Forest” follows “In Extremis” as the second preview to the 2022 album; due October 7, the band recorded the follow-up to 2019’s “The Verdict” with producer Chris "Zeuss" Harris.
“Digital Noise Alliance” will mark the recording debut of touring drummer Casey Grillo, who’s been in the band’s lineup since 2017 (singer Todd La Torre handled drums on the 2019 album).
