I Am The Avalanche have released a new lyric video for “I’m Not Dead (I Just Blinked And Never Saw The Light Again)”, the track is off the band’s forthcoming album The Horror Show. The band had the following to share about the single: “During the pandemic, Vinnie was developing this song with Chris Todd [Drummer of Common Sage] for a different and ultimately unrealized project. So Vinnie brought it over to Avalanche world and the result is this shit-scorcher of a tune. Please enjoy.”

The Horror Show is a collection of songs forged in grief, courage, and the refusal to stand still. Written largely in the wake of frontman Vinnie Caruana’s profound personal loss, the album explores friendship, mortality, love, and resilience with a deeper emotional weight than ever before, all while embracing total creative freedom.

22 years into their career, I Am The Avalanche are making the most powerful music of their lives with The Horror Show, the band’s fifth full-length album and Equal Vision Records (Quicksand) debut. The heart of The Horror Show beats in the wake of unimaginable loss. “Experiencing ultimate loss will change you on a cellular level,” says frontman Vinnie Caruana. “About 75% of the lyrics were written after my best friend passed away suddenly and unexpectedly.”

Rebuilding from that devastation brought a new perspective. “You find courage you didn’t know you had,” he reflects. “Courage … that was his last gift to me.”

The Horror Show holds grief and celebration side by side. In that, Caruana hopes this album can become a guide for anyone experiencing loss. “This record can become a lifelong companion for those who let it in,” he says. “The message is simple: You are stronger than you think you are and you are not alone.”
