The interrupters –

Battle scars (vinyl) (pre-order)

THE INTERRUPTERS are more than just a band; they’re a family. This is true not only in the literal sense, with vocalist Aimee Interrupter joined by guitarist Kevin Bivona’s twin brothers, Justin Bivona on bass and Jesse Bivona on drums, but also in the extended relationships they’ve built throughout their career. From their early roots in the San Fernando Valley to Aimee’s emergence as one of music’s most exciting frontwomen, the band have established themselves as an alternative powerhouse.

For their fifth full-length album, Battle Scars, THE INTERRUPTERS reunite with longtime collaborators, with Kevin Bivona producing alongside Tim Armstrong (Rancid, Operation Ivy). The album also features contributions from Brett Gurewitz (Bad Religion), Jesse Michaels (Operation Ivy) and Travis Barker (Blink-182, Transplants), bringing together an impressive collective of musical talent.

From the anthemic “Warrior Spirit” and explosive “Wild Heart” to “Unbreakable,” “Stained Glass Window” and the deeply personal “Legacy,” Aimee transforms stories of survival, resilience, forgiveness and growth into songs made to be shouted back from the crowd. Recorded live to analogue tape, the album captures the chemistry and intensity of a band playing together in the same room.

Battle Scars finds THE INTERRUPTERS at their most fearless, delivering a celebration of perseverance, connection and the warrior spirit that keeps us moving forward.
