Iowa based Christian melodic metalcore outfit A Past Unknown has announced that their Red Cord Records sophomore effort, entitled Vainglory, will now be released on October 22ndVainglory comes after a highly successful debut in the form of To Those Perishing and was recorded by Josh Schroeder (For Today, Legend, A Plea For Purging). Between the two albums, the band has been extremely active on the road by touring with acts such as A Plea For Purging, Counterparts, and Shai Hulud. They have also shared the stage with Underoath, As I Lay Dying, Oh Sleeper, and The Chariot while also hitting the festival trail with stops at Cornerstone, Ichthlus, Lifest, Sonshinem and Southern Ontario Metal Festival.

The thirteen track Vainglory features coverart created by Glenn Thomas (Memphis May Fire, Woe Is Me, Decoder), guest vocals by Fit For A King’s Ryan Kirby, and lead single ”Cursed.” The music video for “Cursed” has over a combined 67,000 views in one month from  BryanStars’ and Red Cord Records’ YouTube channels. This is over double what the first single from their debut amassed in a year. The band does not plan to stop as they have a CD release tour confirmed for October with constant touring being planned throughout the fall and winter.
