Vancouver, BC-based Skatepunk outfit The Corps have unveiled the new LP Fractured Protocol, arriving via Thousand Island Records. The release marks their first new music since the addition of new members, including Vancouver Punk Rock veterans Morgan Farrell (ATD, Blacked Out, Bishops Green) on guitar, and Dave Derksen (ATD, Little Fix, Whiskey River Gun Club) on bass.

The band says:

The general theme surrounding ‘Fractured Protocol’ is the paralyzing frustration we all face when we’ve done everything correctly, adamantly working towards our goals and dreams, just to have life step in and say “No.” How we deal with that differs vastly and I don’t believe there’s a right or wrong way. The desperation of trying to hold on could be the most distinctive human trait, this is the feeling we are trying to relay.

You can catch The Corps on the road in May with Darko, and in June with Authority Zero.
