Echoes from the Underground is the sixth studio album from the band Vertical Horizon, released on October 8, 2013.
In 2010, shortly after the band's 2009 album Burning the Days, co-founder Keith Kane left Vertical Horizon to pursue solo projects.
[3] The band's other co-founder and frontman Matt Scannell turned to crowdfunding to financially support the creation of the new record.
Drummer Neil Peart of the band Rush was once again recruited to record drums for two tracks on the album, one of which was "Instamatic", which Scannell ironically described as "Lyrically, it's just your average spy thriller/espionage/blackmail/love song".
[2] Peart also performed drums on the slow-paced, somber album closer "South for the Winter", despite initial reservations that it was not the type of song he would play on.
