“We will not be silent and we will not back down. We are the remnant.”
“The definition of remnant is a small remaining quantity of something, especially after a tragedy. ‘Remnant’ is about us being blessed beyond measure despite our failures and weaknesses and despite going through tragedy and hardships. It’s about perseverance and saying to the world even when we are brokenhearted and suffering we won’t give up and we will keep going,” vocalist Jennifer Benson says. “We will come up stronger despite adversity. It’s an encouragement to others to do the same and to not lose hope and to not give in to fear. I hope this song makes people feel inspired and to rock out!”
 
“As a band we want to be honest that we struggle with anxiety and depression at times and want to encourage others that they are not alone. It’s been a hard couple years for everyone. The bass player, Ian, worked with Covid patients at the hospital and seeing that was hard and seeing what my family went through was hard but we want people to know that that they are not alone and that they are loved.”
The full EP, Ascension, drops March 4th and will be celebrated with a live performance at The Forge in Joliet, IL with Otep on the same date. The EP will include a new song, “Anymore“, mixed and edited by Nick Radovanovic, who has worked with Skillet.
