Soaring successes, bitter defeats\u2026 Leigh Kakaty has survived it all.<\/p>\n<p><i>What Remains<\/i>\u00a0is the culmination and story of this journey with Pop Evil, laid bare like never before. Continuing in the recent vein of 2023&#8217;s acclaimed\u00a0<b><i>Skeletons<\/i><\/b>, the new opus is both sonically and thematically Pop Evil&#8217;s heaviest ever offering; a thundering collection of arena-ready modern rock and metal hits in which Kakaty opens heart, mind, and soul.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are a lot of issues and things that I&#8217;ve dealt with in this journey of Pop Evil that I&#8217;ve buried for a long time,&#8221; the frontman explains of this document of resilience, perseverance, and accountability.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\">Pop Evil were born in North Muskegon, Michigan in 2001, Kakaty drawing on the lessons of a youth first shaped not by music, but by high school basketball \u2014 leadership, team work, the drive to improve in the lonely hours put in at the gym at 5am, the will to win suppressing any fear \u2014 in order to fight tooth and nail for their break-out moment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was hustling and learning every day to make my dreams come true,&#8221; Kakaty recalls of his time playing local bars and slinging early EPs out of the back of his truck. &#8220;Studying never interested me. Neither did getting a regular job. A knee injury wrecked my shot at playing sports. Music was all I wanted to do from that moment, and I didn&#8217;t give myself a backup plan. Pop Evil gave me a purpose, and a reason to get up every day. It became a crusade.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"><b><i>LIpstick on the Mirror<\/i><\/b>, their 2008 debut, and its follow-up,\u00a0<b><i>War of Angels<\/i><\/b>,<i>\u00a0<\/i>brought acclaim and global attention; 2013&#8217;s\u00a0<b><i>Onyx<\/i><\/b>\u00a0delivered the first of the bands nine No.1 singles and six RIAA-certified gold and platinum plaques, but also a period of darkness brought on by the grief of Kakaty losing his father. &#8220;I was completely lost \u2026 I had just missed the last five years with my dad, chasing this dream when I could have been with him. I didn\u2019t know if I wanted or could do Pop Evil anymore,&#8221; he says. The band\u2019&#8217;s 2017 self-titled album, opened by the smash-hit &#8220;Waking Lions&#8221; was written &#8220;pretty much to save my life&#8221; \u2013 but in turn \u201creminded me of the fire I have inside, and that God put me here to make music that could help people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a mission statement enshrined in Pop Evil to this day \u2014 and which provided the spark for the genesis of<i>\u00a0What Remains<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou&#8217;re always chasing that one song that can connect with that one person,&#8221; Kakaty says. &#8220;And that process has to start with yourself. There&#8217;s a lot of personal healing on this record, a lot of things I wanted to get out for my own mental well-being. I&#8217;m finally at a place where I can confront my demons.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sonically, the album is a riotous explosion of life-affirming noise; a vortex of scything riffs and gut-punch drum beats that regularly give way to Pop Evil&#8217;s hallmark anthemic choruses.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We set out to push boundaries\u201d nods Kakaty. &#8220;Metal has always been a part of our DNA, but we&#8217;ve never made it such a focal point before. A lot of writing on this record has been about listening to what my soul is saying and letting the songs find their own path, rather than chasing a sound that might fit in on the radio. I think you can really hear the mood and emotion of the album&#8217;s themes in the music.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\">\n<p class=\"v1MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"><b><i><u><a href=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-42345\" src=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album-250x250.png 250w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Pop-Evil-album.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>WHAT REMAINS\u00a0<\/u><\/i><\/b><b><u>TRACK LISTING:<br \/>\n<\/u><\/b>The Bullet That Missed<br \/>\n<b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Iu71zUPx62s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Deathwalk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rJTzUO58xI4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">What Remains<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=UpLkY4zJoaA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wishful Thinking<\/a><\/b><br \/>\nSide Effects<br \/>\nCriminal<br \/>\nEnough Is Enough<br \/>\nZero To None<br \/>\nKnife For The Butcher<br \/>\nOverkill<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern rock powerhouse\u00a0POP EVIL\u00a0\u2014 vocalist\u00a0Leigh Kakaty, guitarists\u00a0Dave Grahs\u00a0and\u00a0Nick Fuelling, bassist\u00a0Joey &#8220;Chicago&#8221; Walser, and drummer\u00a0Blake Allison\u00a0\u2014 are pleased to announce their forthcoming eighth album\u00a0WHAT REMAINS.
