TRAUMA by I Prevail
TRAUMA is an album by I Prevail, released in 2019. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 5 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Every Time You Leave”, on 3 lists with a best position of #10.
TRAUMA, the second studio album from Southfield, Michigan's I Prevail, landed on Fearless Records on March 29, 2019, three years after Lifelines. This is a band that first got noticed for a metal makeover of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space," and TRAUMA is where their own songs take over: bruising, breakdown-heavy riffs from lead guitarist Steve Menoian stacked against choruses built for rock radio, with Eric Vanlerberghe's vocals out front.
It paid off fast. The record was the fourth biggest seller in the US in its first week, and "Breaking Down," the second single, climbed into the top 10 of Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart that May. The Grammys came calling too: TRAUMA was nominated for Best Rock Album, and "Bow Down" for Best Metal Performance.
