ANIMALS AS LEADERS have officially set March 25th as the release date for their new album, The Joy Of Motion. This offering is quickly going to be hailed by fans and media alike as the group's career defining release that will ultimately redefine the progressive world as we know it.
This third full-length release is a bombastic, dynamic and innovative explosion incorporates elements spanning across the entire musical spectrum. It also marks the recording debut of drummer Matthew Garstka, whose technical proficiency and unique style allows Abasi and guitarist Javier Reyes the room to push their boundaries to previously unthinkable heights.
A promo video trailer can be seen below:
Reyes states: "I think some of the new tracks are some of AAL's strongest and musical material yet and extremely happy with how the album came out. Everyone who took part with this album (Misha Mansoor - PERIPHERY), Adam Getgood (Periphery), Diego Farias (VOLUMES), and Navene Koperweis) is extremely talented and I think we've done a great job of capturing it onto what is now the third Animals As Leaders album."
Animals As Leaders kick off the New Year with a massive headlining North American tour on February 24th with AFTER THE BURIAL, NAVENE KOPERWEIS and CHON.
