Share

The new heavy releases are stacked this week, with metalcore pioneers, industrial shapeshifters and hometown acts all dropping fresh visuals.

Here’s just some that are cutting through.

Poison The Well ‘Everything Hurts’

Poison The Well are back with ‘Everything Hurts’, the latest taste of Peace In Place, their first album in over 15 years, landing March 20th via SharpTone. The track leans into their signature quiet loud tension, simmering before cracking open.

Jeffrey Moreira keeps it painfully human, explaining, “Everything Hurts is about the patience and effort it takes to keep relationships alive.” He adds, “You can’t put up with everyone’s shit, so the people you keep close are the ones whose shit you actually want to deal with.” (per press release).

After more than a decade away from full length territory, Poison The Well still know how to twist the knife, they’ll tour Australia in June.

Moodring ‘Anywhere But Here’

Moodring continue their dark spiral with ‘Anywhere But Here’, pulled from death fetish, out March 27th via SharpTone, industrial haze collides with metallic edge as Hunter Young dissects creative collapse and emotional fallout. “Anywhere But Here is about the breakdown of a relationship where a shared creative world became a source of manipulation and envy,” he shares. “The chorus lyric is coming from a place of irony, but also represents a longing for freedom and steadiness.” (per press release). It’s claustrophobic, cold, and defiantly alive.

The Gloom In The Corner ‘You Didn’t Like Me Then (You Won’t Like Me Now)’

Melbourne’s The Gloom In The Corner unleash ‘You Didn’t Like Me Then (You Won’t Like Me Now)’ ahead of Royal Discordance, due February 27th. It’s theatrical, urgent and unashamedly maximal, the band say the track is “not just about accepting one’s self, but also embracing it, regardless of what other people think.” They add, “Not everyone is going to like you or accept you, and that’s totally okay — you don’t have to like them either.” (per press release) Expect to hear it when they tour nationally with King 810 next month.
