In 2022, Power Trip guitarist Blake Ibanez started a new band called Fugitive with members of fellow Texan hardcore and metal bands like Skourge, Impalers, and Creeping Death. The band’s debut EP Maniac was Ibanez’s first music since the sudden and tragic 2020 death of Power Trip frontman Riley Gale. It didn’t quite sound like Power Trip, but it was in the same ballpark. A year later, Fugitive followed that EP with a double single, “Blast Furnace” b/w “Standoff.” Now, they’ve dropped another ripper, bringing the total count of Fugitive songs to eight.
