Atreyu announce details of upcoming full-length ‘Baptize’, unveil two new songs

Going on two decades since their debut album dropped in 2002, Atreyu have shown no signs of slowing down, having just announced their new album Baptize. Longtime vocalist Alex Varkatzas may be out of the band, but Brandon Saller has stepped up in his wake to take over It’s out June 4 via Spinefarm Records. Pre-order it here. The band has shared not one, but two brand new songs from the record.

“‘Warrior’ is song about persistence and never giving up,” the band shares. “We hope this song can be the puzzle piece that helps people realize 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.”

Atreyu continues, “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.”

About “Underrated”, the band says, “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 two decades later, we’re still making our mark.”
