A Call To Arms

A Call To Arms will be Visionist's third album release and where previously the artist used his vocals as samples, for the first time we hear his singing voice in the form of song and lyric. Along with the addition of Visionist's vocals, the album is host to a varied list of collaborators, including Haley Fohr, whose voice interprets Visionist's lyrics on the first track to be shared from the album. For Visionist (aka Louis Carnell) each album is a chapter in a bigger storyline. "My music very much reflects how my life has played out," he explains. Safe [2015 / PAN] dealt with his battles with anxiety while Value [2017 / Big Dada Recordings] was a def iant album, built originally from anger, betrayal and anguish. Both of the albums were seeding the land for A Call To Arms, an album that takes on big themes, in a personal voice. Not in the everyday

political sense though. Instead, he builds intimate sett ings, creating spaces where he can place the shadows of the world's current crises. This new record marks a confident moment in Visionist's life and musical career. "I had to stop taking refuge in the premise of 'people don't want to understand me' and focus on being the best

communicator I can be."
