Today the band have dropped their ne single and new music video for “This Day” from such album. Check out the video below.
“‘This Day’, a hopeful call for unity, is an unfiltered, disheartened reaction to the teeming racial tensions of the last couple years,” states vocalist Eli Santana.
IGNITE bassist Brett Rasmussen comments on the new album: “A lot of hard work went into this album and this is the happiest I have felt about an IGNITE album in a long time. It feels incredible to work this hard on a project and see the entire plan come together as anticipated.”
Led by new lead vocalist Eli Santana (of HOLY GRAIL fame), IGNITE‘s new album will feature the following track listing:
1. Anti-Complicity Anthem
2. The River
3. This Day
4. On The Ropes
5. The Butcher In Me
6. Call Off The Dogs
7. The House Is Burning
8. Enemy
9. State Of Wisconsin
10. Let The Beggars Beg
11. After The Flood (CD bonus)
Santana joined IGNITE as the replacement for longtime vocalist Zoltán “Zoli” Téglás, who exited the group in 2020. Rasmussen previously stated about Santana‘s addition to IGNITE: “The energy and positivity that Eli brought to the recording studio was contagious! It was an absolute breath of fresh air for all of us and reminded me of the early days of IGNITE. I really can’t wait to take these songs on tour.”
