State Faults have just announced a brand new album, Children of the Moon, and shared its first single “Palo Santo” along with its music video. It’s a song filled with infectious hooks and a rare showcase of guitarist/vocalist Jonny Andrew’s singing amidst his signature screams.
He comments, “‘Palo Santo’ was the first song we wrote after recording ‘Clairvoyant’ in early 2019. It deals with the struggle to accept that nothing is permanent, and that the floor can fall out from under you at any moment. It’s a reminder in those moments of life that totally knock you down, where you feel like you’re drowning in uncertainty and can’t see where to go next, to remember who you are and live in your truth, and shine on with love and compassion for yourself and others.”
With the world largely shut down during the pandemic, State Faults would spend the next several years biding their time, navigating numerous post production delays, financial hardships, personal misfortune and a near break-up before finally finding the right opportunity to present their album to the world. Pushing the boundaries of the screamo genre, Children of the Moon sees the band exhibiting their creative evolution with each track on the album.
State Faults sounds as massive as ever and Children of the Moon stands as a testament to a band brimming with creative energy. Pre-order the album here ahead of its July 26 street date and see the band on the road this summer.
