Since the band’s first incarnation emerged from Phoenix, Arizona, in 2008, the Word Alive has undergone several lineup changes - but that hasn’t stopped them from netting multiple Billboard placements along the way, including their 200, Independent Albums, and Heatseekers charts. What’s remained unwaveringly consistent is the band’s voltaic output of multifaceted metal. Sweetwater recently got the chance to catch up with the band and their crew, talking all things gear, touring, what’s next for their sound, and why connection is more important than ever.
