Atreyu have announced their new album Baptize, due for release on 4th June 2021 via Spinefarm Records.
To celebrate, the band have revealed two new singles: Warrior, which features Travis Barker, and Underrated.
“Warrior is song about persistence and never giving up,” the band explains. “We hope this song can be the puzzle piece that helps people realise that we ALL have the capacity for greatness. Sometimes, greatness can exist in the shadows and lives buried under negativity, trauma, or anxiety. Warrior is about searching through all of that endless darkness to finally find the sunrise.
“When we wrote Warrior, the idea to do a big marching drum break came about. We wanted it to feel like a hometown football game. Travis Barker was the perfect person to bring this to life. It’s cool to have him be a part of the song and to perform in a different light than what people may be used to.”
“We’ve always had to prove ourselves. We’ve never been handed anything nor have we taken any shortcuts. It’s never been ‘the easy way.’ Over twNEWo decades later, we’re still making our mark,” the band comment on Underrated.
