Background and release

In February 2015, the band announced their signing with Napalm Records.[4] Soon after, the title, track listing and release date for Time Stands Still were revealed. The album was released in Europe on June 26 and in North America on July 10. It was originally slated for a 2014 release but was pushed back after Napalm Records signed the band.[5] It is the first album without Brayden Dyczkowski, who had been one of the main songwriters up until he parted with the band in late 2013; he was replaced by Andrew Kingsley, who is also trained in jazz, on guitar.[6]

On May 26, 2015, the band released the "Tonight We Ride" video, inspired by Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.[7] The video was filmed in the Nevada desert, using props from the Death Guild Thunderdome camp at Burning Man.[5] Music videos were also made for the songs "Test Your Metal"[8] and the title track,[9] the latter video released in late 2016 and documenting the band's tour for the album including their performance at the 2015 ProgPower USA festival in Atlanta, Georgia.[10]
