THE WORD ALIVE DEBUT “HUMAN” VIDEO

Collins’ guest appearance was arranged by producer “Violent Noise” Matt Good (From First To Last), and came at a point when The Word Alive had parted ways with former bass player Daniel Shapiro and drummer Luke Holland. The change allowed the remaining core trio consisting of Smith and guitarists Tony Pizzuti and Zack Hansen the freedom and inspiration to continually evolve The Word Alive’s sound through the writing process. Speaking of their experience in the studio with Sincerely Collins, Telle tells proudly “He came in, we sat down, we talked about the record. He walked around—he didn’t write anything down, really. Then he came back and went into the vocal booth and did almost everything exactly how you hear it on the first take. It was just one of those magic things.”
