Marianas Trench – The Force of Nature Tour

Marianas Trench routinely up their game substantially with each successive album, but their
sixth full-length release, Haven, is more epic and far-reaching, musically and thematically, than
anything they’ve done before.

On Haven, Josh Ramsay and the band take on ‘The Hero’s Journey’ – a mainstay for generations
in describing the commonalities between virtually every quest narrative – as laid out in a series of
plot points in Joseph Campbell’s, ‘The Hero With A Thousand Faces.’ That sets the hook for the
band’s most ambitious, yet universally relatable, record yet – complete with huge orchestral and
vocal arrangements, and, of course, crushingly big rock and roll elements aplenty.

“Pulling from The Hero’s Journey framework, I’m talking about a lot of big life themes, with the
idea of a haven in the storm as a destination,” Ramsay says, “and making Haven was like
passing through a giant storm, so there’s a lot of elemental imagery.”
