It's been a productive 2021 for the West-coast progressive heavy metal trio, Interloper. From gaining recognition on their previous EP “A Revenant Legacy,” the signing with Nuclear Blast Records, to their forthcoming debut full-length titled “Search Party,” it's a pedal to the metal attitude from the start. We are joined by vocalist Andrew Virrueta in today's episode as we take a journey with him through the beginnings of the band that went through quite the process to solidify their final lineup into what it is today. Perhaps, the title “Search Party '' correlates to each of the band members' personal experiences that ended up shaping the album into its final form. We also ask Andrew about the handful of other bands he took a role in before joining Interloper, and how this band is exactly what he feels matches up to his full potential as an individual and a musician. From the detailed artwork, vivid themes, music influences, and the production process behind this album-of-the-year contender in the progressive metal genre – it's all dissected and explored and it will be sure to keep the replay value alive for all the listeners for years to come. The future is bright for this trio. Tune in now as we go through the Dreamlands with Andrew and Interloper, and be sure to buy and stream their debut album “Search Party,” due out June 11 via Nuclear Blast Records.Stay connected with Interloper, visit: https://www.nuclearblast.com/en/music/band/about/7122231.interloper.html, https://www.facebook.com/InterloperOfficial, and https://www.instagram.com/interloperofficialgram/Stay connected with IUF, visit: https://interviewunderfire.com/
