Boston post-hardcore group Vanna will release their anticipated sophomore
album,A New Hope, March 24th on Epitaph Records. Produced and mixed by Steve
Evetts(Every Time I Die, Our Last Night, Story of the Year) and mastered by Alan
~censored~ (Converge), A New Hope emphasizes the band’s heightened musical
abilities, balancing a perfect blend of emotive rock and perilous hardcore with
refined precession. Fans can catch a preview of the new album this January as
the band tours with Gwen Stacy.Since the release of Vanna’s fan-favorite debut EP, The Search Party Never Came,
and their follow-up full-length, Curses, the band has been on a continuous
musical journey, evolving, exploring and maturing with each release and tour.
With the experience of using what works and letting go of what doesn’t, the band
tackled the writing and recording of A New Hope with an added perspective and
understanding.“The writing and recording process naturally becomes more dialed and decisive
with each record,” explains lead vocalist Chris Preece. “This record was
approached with more of a group mentality. We talked a lot about what we liked
and disliked about our last two releases, and each one of us were able to
express ourselves in every step of the process. We locked ourselves in our
practice space for two months, everyone threw out song ideas, and the ideas were
fleshed out into something that we were all happy with. All of our individual
influences and inspirations played a big role creatively.”Creativity abounds. A New Hope will grab Vanna’s core fans with catchy songs
fueled by intense breakdowns, while their accessible melodious song-writing will
open the door to a new audience.Continually elevating their game, Vanna have raised the musical stakes with a
bombardment of twelve tracks that invoke a deluge of sensations. Preece’s
guttural screams and Evan Pharmakis’ (guitarist/vocals) melodic choruses
seamlessly duel on tracks like the epic post-hardcore anthem for the ages, “Safe
To Say,” and the sweeping hit “The Same Graceful Wind.” The fast, ferocious work
of guitarist Nick Lambert, bassist Shawn Marquis and drummer Chris Campbell
provide a wall of intense sound on tracks like “Thrashmouth” and “Life and
Limb.”Vanna’s undying passion for creating and growing musically has resulted in one
of the best post-hardcore releases in years. Resistance is futile.
