Driven Far Off

I Am the Avalanche have announced their long awaited return with one of the most anticipated albums in years, Avalanche United, due out October 11. The band has premiered the album’s first track, “Holy Fuck,” over on RockSound.tv. “[itunes link=”http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/holy-f-k/id457342107?uo=4″ title=”I Am The Avalanche – Holy Fuck” text=”Holy Fuck”]” is also available for download on iTunes now.

“This band has a nervous energy, an urgency that each of us feel every second of our lives, and this album captures that,” says vocalist Vinnie Caruana. “We’re brothers, we’re family. The music we make together binds us together and gets us through all the hard times, together. I feel like all five of us will be able walk with less weight on our shoulders now that we’ve finished this album after years of writing and recording. And now it’s time to perform these songs everywhere, alongside some of my best friends.”

Produced by the band, and executive produced and engineered by their prolific drummer Brett “The Ratt” Romnes and mixed by Machine (Fall Out Boy, Every Time I Die, Four Year Strong), Avalanche United is addictively melodic and blisteringly raw to its very core.
