Regarding how and when the song will be out, Corey stated (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Well, I guess to protect me if I say something I’m not supposed to… Basically, it’s gonna drop before… I can’t remember the exact day, but it’s supposed to come out before we play Bloodstock, ’cause we’re gonna play it at Bloodstock. So, I guess that would be anywhere the first week of August. So within that timeframe.”
We’ve been hinting at this song online with clips and everything for a while, so people know it’s coming. They just don’t know exactly when. But it’s gonna be before we start this tour, so the first week of August, in that timeframe, it’s gonna drop, I believe. We’ve been filming some content and stuff to promote it, leading up to it, so there’s gonna be a lot more ramping up to totally piss everyone off, ’cause they’d been just waiting for new music. So every time you post a snippet or a clip or some kind of teaser, it makes people more mad. So it’s gonna ramp up, ’cause they just want the song.”
on TRIVIUM’s plans to release new music, Corey said: “When we did the stuff, the intention was we thought we were gonna be doing the ‘Ascendancy’ tour from January to December, doing a full tour. And then the idea was we were gonna record a couple songs and then just release ’em as singles kind of as the year goes on for the tour, kind of, like, ‘Hey, we’re coming to South America.’ Oh, new song drops. Or we’re going there, and just releasing standalone singles. ‘Cause it’s been so long since we put out a record, it was kind of, like, ‘Hey, let’s give the fans some new stuff to listen to while we’re doing the anniversary stuff.’ And then once that abruptly ended, we kind of pivoted to doing an EP. So we’re just gonna put everything out at one time. We’re working on some really cool, special vinyl stuff, some collectible stuff. So kind of do a little special mini-release before we are able to get a [full] record done. So, kind of wanting to give the fans, since it’s been a little bit of a wait to get ’em some new stuff to listen to, hold ’em over until we’re able to finish up a new album.”
