Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> was set to release their new single “Beast Inside” on June 21, with a new EP IllMortals Vol 1<\/em> to follow on June 28. Neither one of those things happened and fans are a little confused.<\/p>\n Some fans have taken to the comments section of the Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> Instagram account, which has been very active posting about their recent tour with Flaw<\/strong> and A Killer’s Confession<\/strong>. Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> drummer Dave Chavarri<\/strong> also mentioned both EPs (IllMortals Vol 1<\/em> and the follow-up IllMortals Vol 2<\/em>, allegedly out July 26) in a post from July 1, but failed to note why there’s been a delay and when the new EPs are coming out: “Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> is coming in hot with 2 EP releases; IllMortals Volumes 1 & 2<\/em>, and new video ‘Beast Inside’,” wrote Chavarri<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Art Is War Records also hasn’t addressed the delays despite still having IllMortals Vol 1<\/em> up for pre-order on their website<\/a>. Art Is War Records’ Facebook page only has a post announcing the EP from May 31, but no updates \u2013 and as you can imagine, the comments section there is also loaded with confused fans.<\/p>\n It’s also worth noting that upcoming releases generally appear as a part of an artist’s profile when a single drops on Apple Music<\/a>, which has not yet occurred for Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong>. So we can’t even guess at a new release date here using context clues. As of this post going up, neither Ill Ni\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> nor Art Is War Records has issued a statement on the delay or when to expect the new music.<\/p>\n
