CONVERGE to Record New Album this Spring

by Ryan Minic | Jan 2, 2017

This is kicking the New Year off on the right foot. The mighty Converge have been writing a new album, and have plans to record a follow up to 2012’s All We Love We Leave Behind.

Drummer Ben Koller spilled the beans on Facebook, and said not only will Converge be hitting the studio this spring, but All Pigs Must Die and Mutoid Man — and maybe even Killer Be Killed — are releasing new music in 2017.

Lots happening this year. Keep you posted on more.
