HIGHLY SUSPECT – AS ABOVE, SO BELOW
It’s been two years since the release of Highly Suspect‘s fourth album The Midnight Demon Club, which contained the band’s third #1 US Mainstream Rock hit, “Natural Born Killer.”
Regarding album #5, As Above, So Below:
If my life is a book, then this album is the first chapter that truly addresses the central conflict. The recognition of an ego, the problems its caused — and the birth of its death. If I’m being real, I hit rock bottom again. After another close call with death, I feel wide awake. I don’t know how the book ends yet, but I’m very engaged in the plot now. I’d rather it not end at all.
Highly Suspect vocalist/guitarist Johnny Stevens
