So what was the overall outcome of that hard-working 4 week time period? A new album so dynamic but so perfectly unique to Acres, that it shows so much more of that this band is and can be.Ben and Alex from the UK metalcore band Acres join the Chord Progression Podcast today. With their new album, The Host, due out on May 2nd, we go all in on the creation of this incredible piece of work. Join us as we discuss...The creation process of 'The Host' alongside Landon Tewers of The Plot In You, and why being open to any and all inspiration they (or Landon) had has led to their most dynamic record to date.Why Acres wants to release new music a lot quicker and more consistently following this album release process, and if the music industry will follow suit around more consistently quick releases of new music.Songs on 'The Host' each member of the band is most excited for the fans to hear live, including both their most dynamic and heaviest songs recorded to date.Music lover or music creator, this is an episode for you around a fantastic band.
