Halestorm reveal Into The Wild Life

Halestorm have announced their third album Into The Wild Life will launch on April 6 in the UK.

The follow-up to 2012’s The Strange Case Of… will be released via Atlantic Records and to mark the announcement they’ve issued the track Apocalyptic. Hear it below.

Frontwoman Lzzy Hale says: “This album is not a departure, it is an invitation to all things Halestorm. We didn’t stray from who we are, there’s just a lot more of who we are. If you dare, start with the outermost layer of the onion, our first single Apocalyptic which is the medium between where we left off on The Strange Case Of… and where Into The Wild Life begins.

“Lyrically and musically we explored everything that makes us tick. We set a standard for this record, and gave ourselves no choice other than to be unapologetically Halestorm in every way.”

She continues: “In a time where everyone is freaked out about the state of music, rock ‘n’ roll, hit singles, sales, we decided to ignore all of that and make a true album.

“My insider’s advice: Close your eyes and listen to the album from start to finish. There are some surprises that await you inside that are well worth the journey.”

Into The Wild Life is now available to pre-order via the band’s website in a variety of bundles including double red vinyl.

They’ll take to the road for a 10-date UK tour in March with support from Nothing More and Wilson.
