The crowned ‘Kings of Pennsylvania Hardcore’ Wisdom in Chains have returned with their highly-anticipated 7th studio album titled Nothing In Nature Respects Weakness which will be available worldwide via Fast Break! Records on July 20, 2018. Pre-order bundles go on sale Friday, May 25th.
‘The album title Nothing In Nature Respects Weakness was taken from a piece of advice given to me by an older family member of mine,’ explains vocalist Mad Joe Black. ‘It’s a reminder that when you feel like giving up you have to keep pushing forward. Nature will not pity you. Life will not pity you. So, make yourself so you can fight through the inevitable struggles. As a band we’ve dealt with personal struggles over the last few years and even currently. It’s definitely embedded in the music and lyrics on this album.’
The album was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Rich Rescigno at Mountain Side Studio in Tobyhanna, PA. Wisdom In Chains music is powerful, but their message is even more powerful. These 13 hard-hitting hardcore anthems shed light on current social issues including fear (The Boy And The Cave), violence (Duck Down Stay Down), empowerment (Life Lessons), depression (Better Than I Was), suicide (Palisades Cliff), substance abuse (Truce), personal boundaries (Ultimatum), and being consumed by technology (Slow Drown). In addition, Madball’s Freddy Cricien splits vocal duties on the track Someday and Davin Bernard of Kingdom breaks out a vicious verse attack on Slow Drown.
Nothing In Nature Respects Weakness pre-order kicks off on Friday, May 25th at 9am EST. Three bundles will be available for purchase exclusively through the Fast Break! Records web store while supplies last. Items can be purchased individually as well. Five of the six color options will be available for pre-order and the sixth color will be revealed at This Is Hardcore in Philadelphia on July 29th.
