The camera work in this live clip is totally obnoxious, but thankfully the performance by I Break Horses far outshines it.

New We Are the Storm album finished

We Are the Storm report that they are now finished with their new album "Wastelands" and are currently shopping it around for release. As mentioned earlier this summer, said album was recorded at an old theater in their hometown of Uppsala with Kristofer Jönson (Jeniferever, I Break Horses) engineering and producing before being sent off to Magnus Lindberg (Cult of Luna) for mixing and mastering.
