Wage War: New album and new genre?

Metalcore band Wage War took over the hardcore scene with their first full-length album Blueprints. Since then they've toured with several bands in the hardcore scene and headlined tours of their own. But the band appear to be back in the studio making their fourth full length. On April 8th, 2020, WW tweeted a video with an 18 second clip of a new song with the caption "Making the most of quarentine #ww4"

While we don't have any new updates confirming a release date its expected to drop sometime in 2020. Many fans are worried though that it won't be as heavy as their first or second album.

After their most recent release, Pressure, fans are worried about the future of their favorite metalcore band. Vocalist and frontman Briton Bond stated that when it comes to Wage War, he wants to appeal to more than the typical metalcore fans and that he wanted to tour with more mainstream bands and appeal to a less heavy crowd. Briton also stated he's okay with the idea of Wage War becoming a gateway band for younger fans to start getting to the hardcore scene and has said that's part of the bands plan in 2020.

More information regarding a new album will be released as the band releases it.

The return of A Plea for Purging?

Are we about to experience the full return of A Plea for Purging? In 2012 the band played their last show ever in Nashville, TN, following their farewell tour until they reunited for one night only at Facedown Fest in 2017. Recently vocalist Andy Atkins went to social media making a post with the caption that says "Always and forever dem boys. Starting a new band. Stay tuned." In February of 2020, a new Instagram page emerged (@pleajams) only posting two pictures. One of vocalist Andy on stage, and the other of a pedal board that looks to be in a studio setting. Andy has also posted on social media in the past looking for a space to record music. There is no confirmation yet stating that A Plea for Purging is coming back under the name Plea, though it is possible. But new music is definitely confirmed. Stay tuned for more news and as always thanks for reading!
