Heavy Legends Converge Reveal New Album

Punk-metal masters Converge have announced details of their new album All We Love We Leave Behind, which will be released Friday 12 October on Epitpah.

The follow up to 2009's brilliant Axe To Fall, it will be the band's eighth studio record. Guitarist and vocalist Kurt Ballou has produced the record, which doesn't feature any special guests or collaborators, which is a change for the band who are not short of friends and admirers.

“There's no artificial distortion, triggers, or Auto-Tune on this album," said Ballou, "it's all organic, it's real sounds that capture the way the band performs live.”

Vocalist Jacob Bannon added, “I think we really stepped up our game on this record. The most important thing to this band is that with every album we want to create something that excites us and moves us in some way. There are a lot of subtle nuances on this record are really special to us and we definitely hit those individually on this record.”
