“I’ve been playing/writing hardcore and metal for the past 20 years, so when the chance to do something completely different presented itself, I jumped at the opportunity. With NYVES, I can channel my inspirations into something new, and it fulfills a different side of my creativity,” says Clark. “Randy came to me with some amazing ideas—the kind of songs I’d hear in my head when I imagined doing something different.”

“We share so many musical influences, and we’ve always wanted to do a project together,” adds Torres. “The artists that influenced NYVES have amazing sounding records and that became a driving force in the process of creating this record—to create something equally as great.”

Pre-orders, which include instant downloads of two new songs, are available for purchase now.
