Gemini Syndrome Announce New Album, "3rd Degree - The Raising"
Gemini Syndrome have announced that they will be releasing a brand new album, 3rd Degree - The Raising, on October 15th, 2021 via Century Media. With the album announcement, the band have released a new single, “Abandoned”.
3rd Degree - The Raising acts as the final chapter in a trilogy of albums the band have been releasing over the years: 2013’s Lux, and 2016’s Memento Mori. The new album was produced by Matt Good (Asking Alexandria, Memphis May Fire, Hollywood Undead).
In a press release announcing the album, vocalist Aaron Nordstrom stated the following:
“The album is about death and rebirth. Finding your true self and fostering its growth so as to help build the world better than we inherited it. In the process of this record I made some major life choices. Mainly to stop killing myself slowly with alcohol. Two years without a drink, and a couple near death experiences later, I think I have ample experience to talk about a subject as elusive as death.
“Our hope is that through sharing our experiences, lessons learned, and battles overcome, that we can help others to examine their own consciousness. Their role in the world in its almost infinite capacity, and to help remind each other that we are ALL in this together. We are a family, and when we are United in our commonality, we can achieve things worthy of the attention of the GODS. If you want to change the world, quietly go to work on yourself.”
Drummer Brian Steele Medina also commented:
“The twist to the 3rd and “final” degree, is that it’s not the end at all. Rather, it’s a rebirth contingent upon our growth and lessons learned from the suffering of our past mistakes. A spiritual growth that can only be attained through baptism by fire. A metaphorical, yet very real resurrection — THE RAISING.”
