| Het nieuws over deze tour volgt op de aankondiging van de release van hun langverwachte tweede album, ‘Let The Truth Speak’, dat op 17 november wereldwijd zal verschijnen via Music Theories Recordings / Mascot Label Group. De band heeft reeds officiële muziekvideo’s gedeeld voor het epische titelnummer Let the Truth Speak, met Daniel Tompkins van TesseracT en Gennady Tkachenko-Papiz, samen met We Who Lament en de video die de shortlist heeft gehaald van meerdere filmfestvals voor All We Ever Knew And Ever Loved . De pre-order is hier verkrijgbaar: https://lnk.to/Earthside
Over de tour gesproken, zeggen ze, “Earthside is ecstatic to be touring Europe once again, and with familiar nightliner-mates from the last time we were across the pond. Voyager are a legendary bunch of humans whose live show energy has only gotten better and better with each passing year. And it’s probably good for the well-being of all in attendance that Voyager is there to uplift everyone’s spirits after we’ve sunken y’all into existential angst.
In all seriousness, it should be a wonderful time, getting to partake in Voyager’s European-wide celebration coming off their well-earned triumphs at Eurovision, and to bask in it all with so many of you who are coming out to share in the joy with us. Cold Night For Alligators are a force as well. Definitely a night to be experienced from beginning-to-end, and we’re honoured to be right in the middle of it!”
8 lange jaren verwijderd van hun debuutalbum – A Dream in Static [2015] – bevonden de idealistische denkers in Earthside zich in een geheel andere wereld… of misschien was het een wereld die een stuk eerlijker en meer losgeslagen was dan waar zij en vele anderen op hadden gerekend.
“This album almost destroyed our lives and friendships,” vertelt toetsenist Frank Sacramone. “It’s insanity, but it is beautiful.”
“A Dream In Static was more of an *I* album,” reflecteert gitarist Jamie van Dyck. “Each of us in our own way was engaging topics of self-actualization and the fear of never quite becoming. Let The Truth Speak, however, turns its focus to the *We*. Within months of releasing ADIS, the global landscape had changed to where issues of far more consequence than our own individual dreams coming true were tugging at us. We became far more consumed with the trajectory of humanity as a whole than our own legacies therein.”
Earthside zijn Jamie van Dyck [gitaar, achtergrondzang, toetsenist], Ben Shanbrom [drums, achtergrondzang], Frank Sacramone [toetsenist, synthesizer, percussie, gitaar] en Ryan Griffin [bas, achtergrondzang].
