Arizona metalcore quartet, Blessthefall, have released their new single “Drag Me Under,” via Rise Records. The video for the new tack is due out Wednesday August 28th.

“The first time I heard the instrumental for ‘Drag Me Under,’ my mind was absolutely blown away,” says vocalist Beau Bokan. “This song punishes you relentlessly then lets you breathe for about four seconds then continues to punish. I knew we needed a top tier feature to really make this song stand out so we recruited Lochie Keogh from Alpha Wolf. It’s pretty obvious this song is totally different than anything we’re ever done but still sounds like Blessthefall.”
In Spring 2023, the band released “Wake the Dead,” their first new track in five years. It has already accrued a whopping 10 million streams and over 1 million views. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/Un4dvVurndY
Blessthefall will also embark on a headline tour. It kicks off 28th August in Berkley, California and runs through 28th September in Davenport, Iowa. All dates and tickets here: https://www.blessthefallmusic.com/
Blessthefall’s notched back-to-back Top 25 debuts on the Billboard 200 with Hollow Bodies [2013] and To Those Left Behind [2015], while 2018’s Hard Feelings marked their third straight Top 5 bow on the Top Alternative Albums Chart. Speaking to their enduring legacy, they’ve racked up hundreds of millions of streams with “Hey Baby, Here’s That Song You Wanted” at 33.8 million Spotify streams followed by “Hollow Bodies” at 26.2 million Spotify streams in addition to landing syncs in franchises such as Splinter Cell. In the wake of a successful 10-year anniversary tour to celebrate Witness in 2019, blessthefall went quiet for the next two years. Between the global pandemic and various other gigs, the members still kept the lines of communication open. The band now emerges from a half-decade of dormancy, and not a moment too soon.
