THE WARRIORS have announced a new album! Titled Monomyth, the upcoming album from the American hardcore band is scheduled to be released in December via their new home at Pure Noise Records. The 12-track collection marks the band’s first new album in nearly a decade, as it follows up 2011’s See How You Are. When writing Monomyth, frontman Marshall Lichtenwaldt found inspiration in The Kybalion as well as the concept of the hero’s journey, analysed and popularised by Joseph Campbell in his book The Hero with a Thousand Faces (which also served as a major influence on Star Wars creator George Lucas). These themes are distilled into the album’s 12 songs, juxtaposed against Eastern philosophies and meditative transcendental teachings that reverberate even louder when placed atop the band’s caustic brand of hardcore.
