Provoker announce third album, Mausoleum
Los Angeles-based band Provoker have announced their third full-length album Mausoleum alongside the release of its lead single, "Another Boy".
Provoker originally began as a solo effort from musician Jonathon Lopez to create scores for horror and sci-fi films. After joining forces with vocalist and songwriter Christian Crow Petty and bassist Wil Palacios, Provoker released their debut full-length album as a trio with Body Jumper in 2021 and followed up with their 2023 release Demon Compass.
The band’s forthcoming album is thematically rooted in feelings of isolation, but practically, is one of the most communal and collaborative projects the band has ever made, executive produced by esteemed producer Kenneth Blume. The band workshopped ideas together in studio sessions, born out of Petty’s thoughts of hauntings while holed up in an Echo Park attic.
