JOSEPH IZAYEA and friends tease Harder Truths with cover art and studio update
Harder Truths is the epic debut solo release from JOSEPH IZAYEA featuring some heavyweights of the metal world including the legendary Doc Coyle from BAD WOLVES & GOD FORBID, Kris Norris, formerly of DARKEST HOUR, Buz McGrath of UNEARTH, Chris Daniele, formerly of The ACACIA STRAIN, Tim MacMillar of PROTEST THE HERO, THROUGH THE EYES OF THE DEAD's Justin Longshore, as well as Josh Gilbert of AS I LAY DYING / WOVENWAR.
JOSEPH comments: "I'm most pleased to announce that final mixing and mastering of this record is well underway and fast approaching completion on schedule. The fate of this endeavor couldn't be in better hands than those at Chris Daniele Audio and I'm stoked beyond measure to have him at the helm in the control room on top of contributing nothing short of a barn burner to the collaboration. Final cover art has also been completed, courtesy of Meserve Designs. Matt did a stellar job bringing the concept and symbolism of this release to life in the span of one image, and I'm most enthused to see the work involved in putting this together finally bear fruit! Chenqui!"
JOSEPH has been producing songs and performing as a vocalist since 2007, and has released nine albums, numerous singles and covers of various genres. Currently the vocalist for FROM UNDER CONCRETE KINGS, SEEKING SIRENS, and SOUR TIMES, he’s shown no signs of slowing down. This collaboration album will be released under the umbrella of JOSEPH's production company "Do Work" on the 26th November 2021.
Stan Culture is becoming dangerously insane, and I fear it won't just be Swifties coming for my head. Nate Silva (ex-TheSlyde) going solo with his new album The Chase. Plus the last week of April had some more releases and these ones are surprising.
