Ovtlier is ready to raise the bar a whole other level, gearing up to outdo their own personal best with the release of “Warriors feat. Chris Motionless”. The track was written by the band’s lead vocalist and founder, Joey Arena, Justin DeBlieck (Ice Nine Kills, Motionless In White), Alecia “Mixi” Demnar (Stitched Up Heart) and Joel DeMartino. It was produced by Justin DeBlieck as well, while joining its predecessor as the second single mixed by Chris Dawson (SAUL, Any Given Sin) and mastered by Mike Kalajian (Bad Omens, The Plot In You). Due to the relationship between Chris Motionless and Joey, it was only a matter of time before the collaboration went into effect. With Ovtlier’s dedication, nose to the grind work ethic and a star-studded team of support behind them, the success of “Warriors” as the band’s most-accomplished single is inevitable!
Adding to the excitement, the music video for the song, directed by Tom Flynn, known for his work with acclaimed artists such as All That Remains, Body Count, and 10 Years, is bound to leave a lasting impression. Tom Flynn’s impressive portfolio indicates his expertise in creating visually stunning and impactful music videos.
The video made it’s debut on Revolver today!
“’Warriors’ is a song that’s just built different. It encompasses all of who and what Ovtlier is. Add a powerhouse like Chris to the mix and you have something extra special. I could not be more excited to collaborate with someone with such talent but even more, a friend!” says Joey Arena, the band’s vocalist.
Chris Motionless adds, “I’ve been following Ovtlier for a while now and I see how bad they want it, and what they are willing to do to get it. It’s tough to find that kind of dedication these days, so I wanted to do my part in helping an up and coming band get some more eyes and ears on them. I love the song and it’s blend of genres I grew up loving, so it was an easy call to sing on Warriors.” In addition, Ovtlier is set to perform at both the Upheaval Festival and the Vortex Festival this summer. In August, the band will be supporting A Skylit Drive and VRSTY.
