HOW WE FEEL Share New Album
“Ready For War”
Cleveland, Ohio Rockers HOW WE FEEL have released the title track and video their new album Ready For War on Legend Recordings/Virgin Music Group. The powerful duo consisting of Vocalist Chris Bianchi (Forever in Terror) and Drummer Brian Lamtman have been friends for more than 20 years, and were inspired to make music together in early 2024. Influenced by Shinedown, Imagine Dragons and Thirty Seconds to Mars, HOW WE FEEL are carving their name into the modern rock scene with authenticity, energy, and purpose – coupled with a sound that has a fresh yet familiar edge.
The track and album were recorded at the band’s new WareHouse Studio in Kent, OH. It was engineered by John Burke and produced and mixed by Paul Bartolome (Asking Alexandria, Escape The Fate), and mastered by Grammy Award winning Ted Jensen (Green Day, Bring Me The Horizon, Evanescence) at Sterling Sound in New York.
The band’s Chris Bianchi says of “Ready For War” is a song that came from the heart. The song stems from the struggles that we all face in our daily lives. Be it in relationships, money, or other circumstances we all have things that can be tough deal with. However, at the end of the day, if you have someone or something that you love to help keep you going – Nothing else seems to matter. It’s our call to arms of never giving up. Some people told us we were too late to make a band, to release music or make an album and this is a testament that you can do anything you believe in.”

The “Ready For War” video was directed by Jake Cole in Canton, Ohio (Home of the Pro Football Hall Of Fame). Bianchi explains “The video is meant to showcase the daily struggles and obstacles that many face be it through bills, relationships, daily life struggle but that love will always win. It helps you find that light in the dark and at the end, you can win and you do triumph. The video is meant to our process: Going from writing in the basement, to recording the song in the studio – and ultimately performing live on stage for our fans.”
The band is scheduling shows in support the album release and will be using their appearance at the upcoming Inkcarceration Festival to launch into touring for the rest of the year into 2026.

About HOW WE FEEL:
HOW WE FEEL formed in early 2024 when long time friends Chris Bianchi and Brian Lamtman decided to combine their shared interests and tastes to release music they were both passionate about. Their demos of emotionally driven lyrics backed with an explosive sound caught the ears of Virgin Music Group, who partnered with Bianchi’s label Legend Recordings in May of 2024. They went into the studio with engineer John Bruke and producer Paul Bartolome (Asking Alexandria, Escape The Fate and more) to record several tracks. The songs were mastered by legendary engineer Ted Jensen (Green Day, Bring Me The Horizon, Evanescence) and debut single Make It Out Alive—a hard-hitting anthem of perseverance – was released in September of 2024. It was followed by Devil Inside in November, and Losing My Mind in December.
