Attack Attack! Returns After 13 Years With New Album and Tour: Metalcore Legends Are Back!
Attack Attack!, the metalcore band that dominated the late 2000s MySpace and Warped Tour scenes, is back in full force after a 13-year hiatus! Get ready to relive the electronicore glory as they announce their new album, "Attack Attack! II", set to drop on August 8th via Oxide Records. This marks their first full-length studio album since 2012, and fans are buzzing with excitement.
To celebrate their triumphant return, Attack Attack! has unleashed not one, but two scorching new singles: "Dance!" featuring Will Ramos of Lorna Shore, and "Chainless". "Dance!" is particularly noteworthy, blending the band's signature mix of dance/electronica music with metal and deathcore elements, creating a sound that's both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. According to the band, the collaboration with Ramos is "the real version" of "Dance!" after Attack Attack! trolled fans with a country remix.
"Known for incorporating dance/electronica music with metal, the band consistently bent the rules of songwriting. They took the sounds they liked and crafted seemingly incompatible genres into anthems..."
"The Roadside Rumble Tour" starting May 15th will see Attack Attack! tearing through the U.S. alongside Convictions, Downswing, and Uncured. While there are no scheduled concerts in New York state, metalcore fans might want to consider a road trip to catch this explosive lineup.
Attack Attack! formed in Ohio in 2007 and quickly gained popularity for their unique blend of metal and electronica, often dubbed "electronicore." Songs like "Stick Stickly," "All My Life," and "Smokahontas" became anthems for a generation.
Even after going on hiatus in 2013, the band's influence continued to grow. Original member Andrew Wetzel reformed the band in 2020 with a new lineup, proving that legends never truly die. Their return is a testament to their enduring impact on the metalcore scene.
