Implants Reveal First New Song Since 2016

Punk Rock Supergroup IMPLANTS—featuring members of SoCal mainstays Strung Out, Pulley, Ten Foot Pole, Authority Zero, and Brown Lobster Tank/The Tank—will release their highly anticipated full-length album, Annihilation, on October 18th via Cyber Tracks. Limited edition vinyl is now available for preorder.

The band has unveiled their first new song since the release of their 2016 EP, The Olden Age. Watch the lyric video for “Raise This Flag” here. 

“The song addresses how people are often oblivious to their surroundings, consumed by their cell phones,” explains vocalist Ken Conte. “It’s a reflection on how politicians prioritize their own greed and agendas over the welfare of future generations. We need to act now because our government is undermining our country and our planet, while people continue to follow misleading political rhetoric.” 

From grappling with depression and suicidal thoughts (“Radio Out”) to navigating the emotions of a breakup (“Shades of Black”) to addressing governmental corruption and the failings of our current leadership (“Raise This Flag”) — Annihilation explores the world around us.
