American metalcore stalwarts Atreyu make a passionate return to the hearts of fans everywhere with The Pronoia Sessions – a new collection that deconstructs, recreates, and reshapes eight of their greatest hits and two nostalgic tribute covers. The genesis stretches back to a series of acoustic performances at special events on the road. We had the idea to do a show similar to Nirvana s MTV Unplugged as a one-off thing, explains frontman Brandon Saller. Then we thought, Why not spend some time on it in the studio? And it built from there. How far can we push this? It spawned from there and unexpectedly turned into this monster. What began as an acoustic album evolved into a grand re-imagining of Atreyu classics.
