START YOUR WEEKEND WITH AS I LAY DYING’S THE POWERLESS RISE

It’s been almost three years since As I Lay Dying put out a new album, but their latest opus, The Powerless Rise, comes out this Tuesday, May 11. So, hey, no shocks here – it’s streaming now. I know it’s gonna sound like I’m just shilling for one of our guest bloggers, but sincerely: Nick Hipa and co-guitarist Phil Sgrosso have really outdone themselves on this record . The solos especially are EPIC. The ones on “Parallels” and “The Plague,” especially, really get me goin’.

Check it out and let us know what you think. Like I said, The Powerless Rise comes out this Tuesday on Metal Blade.
