Metalcore quintet It Lies Within are returning with their sophomore album Paramount on Jan. 8th via Luxor Records (pre-order), and Crave has your exclusive premiere ahead of release.
Repugnant mismanagement has poisoned the water of their hometown of Flint, MI – an economically ruined community with one of the highest murder rates in the nation. But these hometown heroes have risen through crumbling socioeconomic infrastructures and perilous odds to become metalcore champions, and their follow-up to Chrysalis is perfect evidence of their considerable evolution.
An all-out audio assault melding the juggernaut power of metal with the hyper adrenaline of EDM, Paramount features guest vocalist appearances from Telle Smith (The Word Alive), Ryan Kirby (Fit For A King) and Jonny Mcbee (The Browning). McBee also co-produced the album with As They Sleep guitarist Nick Morris.
“ Words cannot express how excited we are to release the album Paramount,” explians vocalist Zachary Scott. “It’s been a long time coming, but well worth the wait. This album infuses many styles of metal along with some extra flare on the production side. We are excited to take our message to a larger platform with this album. Musically it’s a roller coaster ride from the start to finish. We hope you enjoy the ride. “
