•7/21/08: New ALL THAT REMAINS!
Massachusetts' ALL THAT REMAINS have posted two new tracks of music online at the band's official MySpace page from the band's eagerly-anticipated forthcoming album, Overcome, which will see a Sept 16 release through Prosthetic Records. The two tracks, "Before The Damned" and "Relinquish," appear on the 11-track album which was produced and engineered by Jason Suecof (Trivium, Chimaira, The Black Dahlia Murder), mastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound (Lamb of God, Annihilator), and features artwork by Carson Slovak (Century, Too Pure To Die, killwhitneydead.). "This represents the heavier side of ATR," frontman Phil Labonte says. "Last time we did this we put up "The Weak Willed" [from The Fall of Ideals] and we feel like it's a bit of a tradition to really kick you in the nuts when we first show off new stuff! So here is the heaviest stuff we came up with for Overcome. Hope you like 'em. " Pre-orders for Overcome in exclusive design packages will be available shortly, with the first 200 orders receiving autographed 11x17 posters. Meanwhile, ALL THAT REMAINS begins their nearly month-long stint on Vans Warped Tour July 23 in Mansfield, Mass., wrapping up next month in Los Angeles. This marks the first time ALL THAT REMAINS has been a part of the annual summer festival, having already left their live mark on Ozzfest in 2006, Sounds of the Underground in 2005 and the European leg the next year. Since the release of the band's last album, 2006's The Fall of Ideals, ALL THAT REMAINS has also made appearances at the Wacken: Open-Air Festival, Japan's Loud Park Festival and several European and Stateside tours alongside Killswitch Engage, DragonForce, among others, all culminating in a highly-successful headlining tour across North America last winter.

"Basically we wanted to have this album be cohesive all the way through. We came up with themes for each song and then wrote the songs like we were doing a film score and try to capture the mood musically for what each theme represents."
