An Interview with Adrian Patrick of Otherwise as he brings the light through the darkness

September 7, 2014

We have been very excited about the return of Otherwise to this year’s Monster Energy Aftershock Festival which is right before their new album, Peace At All Costs is released on September 16th. The new album has been garnering a lot of well deserved attention. The first single, Darker Side of the Moon has been quickly climbing the Active Rock charts. In regards to Darker Side of the Moon, Adrian Patrick had this to say: “Darker Side of the Moon is just the beginning of the journey that we plan to take with everyone. The Moon is a heavenly body that we’ve come to cherish and worship throughout our meager lives… but there is another side to it that most of us know nothing about. We hope that our album Peace At All Costs will help the world navigate the depths of its own darkness and break through into the Light on the other side.” We recently had the chance to talk with frontman Adrian Patrick about the new album and their upcoming tour.
