PROTEST THE HERO's 'Volition' Cracks U.S. Top 20

November 6, 2013

"Volition", the fourth studio album from Canada's PROTEST THE HERO, sold around 11,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 20 on The Billboard 200 chart.

The long-awaited follow-up to 2011's "Scurrilous" (Vagrant),"Volition" was licensed to series of worldwide partners who are helping distribute and market it to both traditional stores alongside digital service providers, thus making the new record available on a worldwide scale.

PROTEST THE HERO and Razor & Tie joined forces for the United States, while the album was released in Canada through Sony Music and in the rest of the word via Spinefarm.

"Volition" track listing:

01. Clarity
02. Drum-Head Trial
03. Tilting Against Windmills
04. Without Prejudice
05. Yellow Teeth
06. Plato's Tripartite
07. A Life Embossed
08. Mist
09. Underbite
10. Animal Bones
11. Skies

After the departure of longtime drummer Moe Carlson, PROTEST THE HERO enlisted LAMB OF GOD's Chris Adler to sit behind the kit for the recording sessions of "Volition". Now with extensive touring on the horizon, PROTEST THE HERO has decided to fill the slot permanently with Mike Ieradi.
