“We went with Josh mostly because we thought his productions for deathcore albums were so sick.” Fans of Striker would shudder to hear such words, but vocalist Dan Cleary wanted to try something different with the band’s seventh full-length album. Six years – and their longest layoff between records – since 2018’s Pay To Win, Edmonton’s fiery metallers are finally back with Ultrapower, out now via their own label Record Breaking Records.
Self-producing their own records since 2016’s Stand In The Fire, the Edmonton metallers decided to branch out and bring in Josh Schroeder – known for his work with Lorna Shore, Mental Cruelty, Tallah – to helm the production duties of Ultrapower.
Rest assured, the album is 100% Striker without an ounce of deathcore in sight. Cleary explains the rationale behind using Josh, “We thought, hey, why don’t we just try recording with him and see what happens, you know? We thought we would have a lot of crazy heavy stuff on the album. I mean, we had some crazy heavy ideas, but in the end, it all just sounds like Striker.”
