NEW ALBUM HOW THE BEAUTIFUL DECAY ARRIVES APRIL 19 VIA SOLID STATE RECORDS
BAND TOURING THIS MONTH
San Francisco’s Lightworker — Joe Calderon [vocals], Grayson Hurd [guitar], and Ryan Johnson [drums]—recently announced their new album How the Beautiful Decay will land on April 19 via Solid State Records. Pre-order it here.
Today, the band has shared the video for “Burn Scar.” Watch it here.
“Put simply, ‘Burn Scar’ is a song about resisting the barriers society has instilled in us in favor of showing each other love and compassion,” the band says. “It’s a sincere hope that we have the courage to accept our faults, learn from them, and to nurture not only each other’s friendships and community, but where we also inhabit before it’s too late.”
Lightworker first emerged with the Resilience EP in 2017. Their signature sound cemented on 2020’s full-length debut, Fury by Failure. It tallied over a million streams powered up by the likes of “Empyre,” “The Willing Martyr,” and “Words Dissolve” [feat. Ryan Kirby of Fit For A King]. Meanwhile, a 2021 cover of the Hoobastank hit “Crawling in the Dark” maintained their momentum. During 2022, they recorded How The Beautiful Decay with Beau Burchell of Saosin in the producer’s chair. The musicians made a conscious decision to let their heavier impulses lead the way in the studio. As a result, How the Beautiful Decay is a master class in beautiful brutality.
