Mit ihrer neuen Single `Echoes´ schlägt die US Metalcore Truppe AS I LAY DYING um den nicht ganz unumstrittenen Fronter Tim Lambesis ein neues Kapitel in ihrer Bandgeschichte auf. Deren Besetzung stellt sich nun des weiteren wie folgt dar: Chris Clancy (Bass, Clean Vocals), die beiden Gitarristen Bill Hudson und Don Vedda sowie Drummer Tim Yeung. Die Termine der anstehenden EU-Herbsttour findet ihr unten und hier.
Der Fronter erklärt:
„As the only primary songwriter on every AILD album, I’m always going to a find a path forward for this catalog of music that I’m so passionate about. But sometimes things come together even better than expected. I’m incredibly grateful for my new bandmates. In addition to being incredibly talented, they genuinely care about my well being and the band we are now all a part of.“
Bill Hudson fügt hinzu:
„Tim L and I first met almost 20 years ago and I’ve been in multiple bands with Tim Y. It’s an honor to be a part of the new chapter of As I Lay Dying. What a great way to get together and play with so many friends of 15+ years at the same time!“
Und Chris Clancy bekräftigt:
„Excited to finally share this new chapter. Check out the music video for Echoes, proud of what we’ve created together. Hope you enjoy it!“

Lyrics:
Buried by the thoughts, I’m bleeding
Forged in fire but now I’m seeing
How it’s haunting me
How it’s haunting me
Haunted by the price I pay
For passion and impulsivity
But as the blindness fades away
The greatest pain is if I choose to stay
A shell of skin around a mind
That’s spiralin‘ in a decline
‚Cause you’re dead inside
Why would I choose to chase a ghost
When all I would gain is just more loss?
And how could I seek to find my soul
As I kill myself to make you whole?
Why would I sacrifice my only life when
You won’t try to simply even take a look inside?
I watched your body stay yet your heart disappear
Like mourning your death while you’re still here
Hearing echoes, hearing echoes calling
(echoes are calling me)
This is haunting how it’s crushing me
It’s crushing me
I wish there was another way
But hope cannot save us
The good moments were never gold
Just pyrite giving false hope as we grow old
Hearing echoes, hearing echoes calling
(echoes are calling me)
This is haunting how it’s crushing me
(how it’s crushing me)
Now I’m buried by the thoughts, I’m bleeding
Forged in fire but not defeated
I struggle on, I can’t let go
Let go to become
Who I always should have been
Become the architect
What I was born to build
Become the architect
Of what I was born to build
Buried by the thoughts, I’m bleeding
Forged in fire but not defeated
I struggle on, I can’t let go
Hearing echoes, hearing echoes calling
(echoes are calling me)
This is haunting how it’s crushing me
(how it’s crushing me)
Now I’m buried by the thoughts, I’m bleeding
Forged in fire but not defeated
I struggle on, I can’t let go
I struggle on, but now let go
(buried by the thoughts, I’m bleeding)
I can’t let go
(forged in fire but not defeated)
I struggle on, the echoes call
They call until I let go
No longer haunted
Become the architect (the architect)
Of what I was born to build
