American Nightmare have announced a new full-length, due this coming February.
The Boston band has released two previous records, and the upcoming, self-titled album is their first to be written in full collaboration between members Wes Eishold, Josh Holden, Brian Masek, and Garcia-Rivera.
“This is a new start, it really is. We are now in the band we always wanted American Nightmare to be with the lineup, the songs, and the name back,” Wes Eishold says of the new release. “It feels full circle in the sound of the music referenced earlier, but it also feels complete in that we took the reigns of the band and its past and made a new American Nightmare album … and now we are ready to move forward with it.”
American Nightmare will be released on Feb. 16 on Rise Records. For more on Eishold's output, check out this Cold Cave interview from 2014.
The band is also touring in early 2018.
