Stray From The Path have revealed details of their new album! Only Death Is Real is set for release via Sumerian Records on September 8!
Guitarist/vocalist Thomas Williams says; “The king equals the elite, the queen equals the government, the bishop equals the church, the knight equals the military, the rook equals the police, and the pawn equals the people. This was the first time the vision and the theme of the album came before the music. We had the artwork first. We wrote this during a pretty dark and reflective time in our lives. In an age where government has failed, they made us feel as small and as insignificant as ever. In this game, all of the attention is turned onto the people: white versus black, Democrat versus Republican, gay versus straight, or Trump versus no Trump. They know the fight is within the community. There can be no fight against the establishment.”
Our first taste of the record comes in the form of lead single Goodnight Alt-Right. Thomas explains;
