Spiritbox have officially dropped Tsunami Sea, their highly anticipated second album, and the hype surrounding it is impossible to ignore.
After a massive 2024, the Canadian metal juggernaut entered 2025 with momentum most bands can only dream of. They were nominated for Best Metal Performance at the Grammys, frontwoman Courtney LaPlante made headlines alongside Poppy, and their relentless touring schedule cemented them as one of the most talked-about acts in heavy music. Now, with Tsunami Sea out in the world, Spiritbox have raised the bar yet again.
The album, released on March 7, has already drawn critical praise from many music publications. While Spiritbox have always thrived on blending ethereal soundscapes with crushing heaviness, Tsunami Sea takes that contrast even further. LaPlante’s vocals swing between haunting melodies and guttural roars, while guitarist Mike Stringer delivers some of the band’s most intricate work to date. It’s an evolution that keeps Spiritbox ahead of the rest of the pack.
With a stacked festival season ahead—including stops at Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Rock for People, and Louder Than Life—Spiritbox are poised to dominate 2025. Their live shows have only grown more dynamic, and with a new album’s worth of material, their setlists are about to get even heavier.
For Australian fans, the big question remains: when will Spiritbox make their long-awaited return to the land down under? Their last visit was a sold-out run in 2023, and given their rapid rise, another tour down under seems inevitable. With Tsunami Sea setting the stage for their biggest year yet, it’s only a matter of time before Aussie crowds get to experience the chaos firsthand.
You can stream Tsunami Sea now, or order a physical copy through the band’s official store.
