"PRONOIA”: the belief that the world is conspiring in your favor; the opposite of paranoia.

Atreyu is a band with a legacy seamlessly intertwined with formative experiences for a diverse legion of listeners around the world. The Pronoia Sessions deconstructs, recreates, and reshapes the Orange County, California, band’s beloved anthems (and cover songs) as a haunting and hypnotic new collection. What began as an acoustic album evolved into a grand re-imagining of ATREYU classics. 

The genesis stretches back to a series of acoustic performances at special events on the road. “We had the idea to do a show similar to Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged as a one-off thing,” explains frontman Brandon Saller. “Then we thought, ‘Why not spend some time on it in the studio?’ And it built from there. ‘How far can we push this?’ It spawned from there and unexpectedly turned into this monster.”

The songs reimagined on The Pronoia Sessions stretch all the way back to 2004’s The Curse (“Right Side of the Bed”) and 2006’s A Death-Grip On Yesterday (“Ex’s & Ohs,” “The Theft”). Two of their biggest hits, “Warrior” and “Save Us,” are reworked from 2021’s Baptize. And there are new versions of “Gone” and “Drowning” from their most recent release, 2023’s The Beautiful Dark of Life.

In addition to their own songs, Atreyu offers dark takes on Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers classic “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” and the enduring, Chris Cornell-led Audioslave ballad “Like a Stone.”
