Wear Your Wounds will release a new album titled Rust on the Gates of Heaven on July 12 (Deathwish Inc). The band was founded by Jacob Bannon (Converge) with the intention to be a solo project, though it has morphed into a five-piece with additional collaborators.
The band's official lineup on this go-around is: Jacob Bannon (Converge), Mike McKenzie (The Red Chord, Stomach Earth, Unraveller), Adam McGrath (Cave In, Nomad Stones), Sean Martin (Twitching Tongues, ex-Hatebreed, ex-Kid Cudi), and Chris Maggio (ex-Trap Them, ex-Sleigh Bells).
In addition to the new album, and a new song online here, the band is currently on tour, playing dates with Uniform, then with Author & Punisher and Xasthur. The band released WYW in 2017.
