Fever 333 have announced a new album titled Darker White, set to arrive on October 4th. In advance of its release, the band has unveiled the new single “No Hostages.”
The album news follows a previous announcement of a fall North American tour, which kick off October 17th in Los Angeles, and runs through a November 8th show in Brooklyn, New York (pick up tickets here).
Regarding the new album’s theme, frontman Jason Aalon Butler remarked, “Darker White is the intersection we will all find ourselves in at some point in our lives. It is the struggle we will inevitably face when identifying our metric for good or bad. Wrong or right. Dark and light. All based on our environment, social construction and cultural/psychological conditioning.”
He continued, “It is the eagle-eyed observation of said intersection and the removing the shame after realizing we all experience it and it is up to us to find use of this taboo so it can be offered to the world as a beautiful story, piece of wisdom or a perspective that ironically changes your life for the better. Darker White is a sonic and social experience.”
“No Hostages” follows recent singles “New West Order” and “Higher Power,” both of which appear on Darker White’s 14-song tracklist. The album marks the first full-length effort from the band’s revamped lineup, which includes Butler, drummer Thomas Pridgen (ex-Mars Volta), bassist April Kae, and guitarist Brandon Davis.
