After 2 years, Spoken is back with a new album, a solid touring schedule and contests to get fans excited and talking about the band’s new release. The hard rock outfit from Arkansas has built up a solid fan-base and sales history in their nearly 12 years of touring and recording. This album is one of Spoken’s harder albums musically, but continues to be filled with strong melodies and challenging lyrics that their fans have come to expect.

This project, the band’s sixth (excluding the Greatest hits colection), gained the coveted “Spoken” title thanks to the album’s writing process. “We wrote these songs to please ourselves, to write songs that we wanted to play live,” explains Jef Cunningham, guitar player for the band. “We ended up with a few that were heavier and harder than anything on the last two records.”

“We wanted to be able to experiment with heavier songs and think further ahead in the lifespan of the band,” continues vocalist Matt Baird. “And with these heavier songs it really feels like a step toward the future and a reflection of the past.”

From now until October 2nd, the band will be hosting a Meet and Greet after each show. Any person attending the show who has a copy of the new album is invited to attend the aftershow.

Spoken is now available at Christian retailers across Canada. For more information, visit the band’s YMZ artist page.
