Abandon Release Second Album 'Control'

Apr 19 2011

Abandon release their second album 'Control' today, 19th April. As the follow up to their 2009 debut 'Searchlights', the new album was produced by Paul Moak (Third Day, Mat Kearney, The Blind Boys of Alabama), Chris Stevens (who also produced 'Searchlights') and Josh Silverberg, and is available now from the US iTunes and UK iTunes stores.

"Seeing something like the Northern Lights in person makes us marvel at the natural, God-orchestrated phenomenon happening in such a beautiful state outside of human control," lead vocalist Josh Engler muses. "Growing up, we were sheltered a bit and it's interesting how your perspective of life changes. As we have toured, our core beliefs have remained intact, but it's interesting how our 'Northern Lights' moments have changed our perspective."

Aaron Gillespie (Underoath, The Almost) co-wrote the songs 'Push It Away' and 'SOS' on 'Control'. The San Antonio-based band has gathered a Dove nomination, widespread critical acclaim and tours alongside Fireflight, Building 429, Remedy Drive, Teen Mania's Acquire the Fire, plus many major faith-based festivals.
