PROTEST THE HERO Change Release Date For New Album Palimpsest
June 15, 2020, 4 years ago
Protest The Hero are moving the release day of their new album Palimpsest up a day to Thursday, June 18, to respect and honour Juneteenth on Friday, June 19.
In a collective statement from the band, they explain, “Many months ago, when we set the date of our record release, we decided on the date of June 19. When we realized our scheduled release day coincides with Juneteenth, we didn't feel right about celebrating our album when we should be observing the holiday. Recently we have been doing our best to look inward and acknowledge our prejudice and privilege. In doing so, we must recognize the importance of Juneteenth, and we don't want to detract from it in any way. Palimpsest will now be released on Thursday, June 18.”
A pre-order is available here. The album features 10 new tracks and is the first music from the band since Pacific Myth in 2016.
