LOS ANGELES, CA – Punk Rock Supergroup IMPLANTS, featuring members of SoCal mainstays Strung Out, Pulley, Ten Foot Pole, Authority Zero, and Brown Lobster Tank/The Tank, will drop their highly anticipated full-length album, Annihilation, on October 18th via Cyber Tracks. Limited edition vinyl preorder will launch on September 6th. Also, the band will be playing a limited number of shows including Garden Amp in Orange County with Mad Caddies and Authority Zero on November 8th.
“We titled the record Annihilation because we believe we’re heading rapidly towards the complete destruction of our planet,” explains vocalist Ken Conte. “The cover design symbolizes AI and the inherent dangers of the technology that’s being imposed on us daily.”
The album was produced and mixed by Chris Collier (KoRn, Pulley, Prong) and mastered by Kyle Black (Pierce The Veil, Comeback Kid, New Found Glory). From grappling with depression and suicidal thoughts (“Radio Out”) to navigating the emotions of a breakup (“Shades of Black”) to addressing governmental corruption and the failings of our current leadership (“Raise This Flag”) — Annihilation explores the world around us.
