Produced by longtime collaborator Kris Crummett (Issues, Sleeping With Sirens, Mayday Parade) and Drew Fulk aka WZRD BLD (Lil Wayne, Motionless in White, Bad Wolves), Dance Gavin Dance's much-anticipated ninth full-length studio album, Afterburner, is a landmark mission statement for the band and encompasses DGD energy past, present, and future. It's a killer and dynamic demonstration of what the five-piece does best, and is equal parts aggressive, melodic, and unrestrained. Guitarist Will Swan calls lead single "Prisoner," "a captivating piece of the eclectic puzzle that is Afterburner. It showcases yet another leap in our constant evolution, and I can't wait for people to hear what this album has in store."
