Don Broco has officially unveiled their new record, Nightmare Tripping, out via Fearless Records. Alongside the release, the UK rockers also dropped a music video for “True Believers” with Architects‘ Sam Carter.
Frontman Rob Damiani says, “We started writing this song back in 2024 during the Southport Riots. At the same time, the Olympics were on, and flicking between them and the news was an alarming contrast between celebratory British patriotism and violent English nationalism. Over the last few years, it’s been impossible to avoid the rise of the far-right across Europe and the United States, seeing politicians and people on the streets alike using the Nazi salute freely without consequence, and genocide apologists’ ideas embraced in the mainstream media. This song is about the brainwashing that’s led to this, to question what we’ve been brought up believing and the narratives that have been reinforced for generations.”
He adds, “As soon as the initial ideas were fleshed out, I wanted Sam on this track. We’ve been fans of Architects for a long time, and the energy and aggression he brings to his vocals are unmatched. As a human being of planet earth, he’s used his talents again and again to stand up for what’s right, so to collaborate on this song with him was very special.”
Check out the new music video below.
Of the full record, the band notes, “For us, Nightmare Tripping is an album coming to terms with a new understanding of how to navigate the world. It’s about lifting the veil and accepting that life can sometimes feel like waking up from one nightmare straight into the next, and finding a way to be ok with that.”
