The Ghost Inside have laid out plans for their sixth studio album.
'Searching For Solace' is set for a digital release on April 19, with physical formats following on June 7 via Epitaph Records.
Alongside the news, the California metalcore heavyweights have shared the cathartic new single Wash It Away, which offers punchy riffs and crushing breakdowns. Head below to view the song's accompanying video. The group said:
"It's really hard to break everything down, start over and rebuild. Whether that is a relationship, schooling, a career or a business venture. After dedicating so much time to something, it can be scary to lose it and start over."
The new record will arrive nine years on from the five-piece's devastating bus crash that resulted in the death of their drivers and serious injuries for many band members. Vocalist Jonathan Vigil added:
"People always ask me how I remain positive. I’m realizing now that there’s never really a time where you reach that point of ‘happiness.’ It’s a constant journey. I know that life is hills and valleys. You must be willing to embrace new things, stand up for yourself, and adapt. Because the goalposts just move further away. The search for solace never ends."
The LP will also feature the band's 2023 singles Earn It and Death Grip. Bassist Jim Riley commented: There’s more singing and song structure than on the previous album, but there are also some of the heaviest songs we’ve done. We really know who we are, and we also feel comfortable stepping into the future. This is a new chapter, but it’s not disconnected from what the band sounded like before. It’s more of an extension of it. We’re excited by it."
The Ghost Inside will return to the UK in May for appearances at Slam Dunk Festival, following a headline North American tour with special guests Paleface Swiss, Bleed From Within, and Great American Ghost. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (February 9).
