VANISHING LIFE (Quicksand, Rise Against) Releasing Debut Album “Surveillance”

by | Nov 10, 2016

How’s this for a supergroup? Members of Quicksand, Rise Against, Bad Religion, and …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. They’re called Vanishing Life, and they’re set to release their debut album this week.

To get more specific, the group features Walter Schreifels (Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits), Zach Blair (Rise Against), Jamie Miller (Bad Religion, Trail of Dead), and Autry Fulbright (Midnight Masses, Trail of Dead). The band previously released a 7″ through Geoff Rickly’s Collect Records, and now they’re back with their first full length, Surveillance.

Kicking off this weekend is the band’s first US tour. Half the dates are on the East Coast — the other half out West.

Here’s their new song “Outlier.”

Surveillance hits streets tomorrow, November 11th, through Dine Alone.

Nov 11 Lancaster, PA @ Chameleon Club
Nov 12 Providence, RI @ The Met
