Fit For A King announce brutal new album, Lonely God

Following last month's No Tomorrow single, Texas metalcore heroes Fit For A King have announced that their new album, Lonely God, will drop on August 1, and features guest spots from Motionless In White's Chris Motionless, The Plot In You's Landon Tewers and Alpha Wolf's Lochie Keogh.

To get you in the mood – an angry, shouty one – they've also unleashed the video for the brutal title-track.

"In general, Lonely God relates to the pursuit of power," explains frontman Ryan Kirby of the track and the album's title. "They're trading companionship, relationships, and love for power and money. You may have all of the power and be a 'God,' but it's a lonely spot because the world despises you."

Working in LA with Spiritbox producer Daniel Braunstein, the singer says that the creative process for the album was an open-ended one.

"Lonely God is the result of us writing with no agendas. We didn't care about which song could be viral, or if we needed radio tracks. We just wrote what we wanted, for the first time in a really long time.

"All five of us have our fingerprints on this album. We found a way to balance our voices. We've always been genuine with the lyrics, and that's the case again. There’s so much heart behind all of the instrumentation too. There’s definitely a lot of growth because our bond is tighter than ever."
