Baptize by Atreyu
Baptize is an album by Atreyu, released in 2021. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Warrior”, on 3 lists with a best position of #12.
Baptize, Atreyu's eighth studio album, came out on Spinefarm Records on June 4, 2021, with John Feldmann behind the board, and it opened a new chapter for the Yorba Linda, California metalcore lifers. Founding singer Alex Varkatzas had left in September 2020, though he'd already worked on the songs and still gets credit for writing and lyrics, and Kyle Rosa made his debut on drums.
What's left is a band throwing everything at the wall: guitarists Dan Jacobs and Travis Miguel still carving out the riffs, bassist Marc McKnight stepping up to the mic, and "Warrior" swinging for the rafters. Critics split down the middle, cheering the ambition while grumbling that the record couldn't hold its focus.
