Striker is now streaming the song ‘Born To Lose’ off of the upcoming album, and you can listen to it via the SoundCloud player here. The band’s official statement about the song:<\/p>\n

“Born To Lose, like most of our songs, is about doing what you want in life. When you are born into this world, there is a lot of you life that is predetermined. If you choose to change part of your life you need to go out and live it, not just fantasize about it. We’ve always wanted to hear music like ours, so we started a band and created it. Born to Lose embraces everything we love about music: speed, nonstop shred, huge vocals, guitars, and drums, and over the top energy and emotion. If it doesn’t make you want to throw down and party then nothing will.”<\/p>\n
