As I Lay Dying will play its first comeback show on June 16 at Soma Sidestage in San Diego, California.
Prior to the arrival of the new song, As I Lay Dying hadn’t released any new music since it issued its sixth album, “Awakened”, back in September 2012.
In May 2014, As I Lay Dying singer Tim Lambesis was sentenced to six years in jail after pleading guilty to paying a San Diego police officer posing as a hit man $1,000 to kill his wife. Approximately two and a half years later — on December 17, 2016 — he was discharged from a California detention facility and was transferred to the Division of Adult Parole Operations.
Last December, Lambesis released a statement in which he apologized to his former wife and children for his “appalling actions.” He also accepted responsibility for being “the sole offender and the only one to blame for everything that happened.”
