Kris Barras Band – announces brand new album and shares video for ‘Riot Of One

KRIS BARRAS BAND has returned with the announcement of their brand new album. “Monsters We Made” will be available 14th August 2026 via Earache Records, with pre-orders available now. To celebrate the announcement of the new album and following in the footsteps of lead single ‘All Falls Down‘, the band have shared a video for the feisty new single ‘Riot Of One’.

On the new single, ‘Riot Of One‘, frontman and guitarist Kris Barras comments:

Obviously I have leaned fully into the fighting theme with this one, with the video shot in an MMA cage! However, the song is about more than that. It’s about feeling like it’s you against the world and saying ‘bring it on’. When life isn’t going your way and it feels like everyone and everything is pushing you down, it’s about standing up and fighting back.”

He continues: “The song started life as a riff/musical idea that Josiah had. He sent it over to me with the directions ‘turn this into a big singalong’. It actually took quite a while to come to life. Then one day whilst driving down to his studio, I came up with the chorus idea, pulled over and recorded a voice note so I wouldn’t forget it!”
