Dump Magazine Rating: ****
The Grammy-nominated rock band I Prevail announced their fourth studio album Violent Nature set for release September 19th via Fearless Records. They also released their third single off the record, “Rain” with an accompanying music video.
“Rain” is a powerful, emotionally charged track showcasing the band’s ability to balance heaviness with vulnerability. It feels both aggressive and cleansing as it explores the weight of suffering and the relief that comes with finally being set free from misery. It sets the tone for what’s to come in the new record: a collection of tracks that are darker, deeper, and more intense than ever.
Frontman Eric Vanlerberghe shared his thoughts on the new track below:
“Rain was one of the first songs we wrote for the record. As time went along and more songs started filling up the tracklist, it continued to be one of my favorite songs. Thematically, Rain deals with acceptance of things out of your control and finding clarity.”
Just last month, the band released the steadfast anthem “Into Hell,” following the release of their heaviest track to date, “Violent Nature,” the month prior. Both releases marked a major turning point for the band as they ushered in a new chapter with Vanlerberghe as the only lead singer.
The entire record was produced by the band’s bass player Jon Eberhard, and it boasts a total of ten hard-hitting tracks you can find below.
I Prevail is no stranger to pushing boundaries. This group has found great success with previous records over the past decade including their first album Lifelines that achieved gold status in both the US and Canada. 2019’s TRAUMA repeated that accomplishment in Canada just a few years later and was nominated for Best Rock Album at that year’s Grammys, with their single “Bow Down” also a contender for Best Metal Performance. 2022’s TRUE POWER saw the band continue to forge their own musical path, refusing to conform to the expectations of the genre, and instead demonstrating just how much of a tour de force I Prevail’s music is.
