Last week Dying Wish shared details of their new album Flesh Stays Together – set for release September 26th via SharpTone Records [album artwork / tracklist below]. The Portland, Oregon based also shared the album’s first single “I’ll Know You’re Not Around,” which is available on all streaming platforms, and is joined by an official music video co-directed by Eric Richter and the band’s own Pedro Carrillo – watch it HERE. Flesh Stays Together is available for pre-order / pre-save, with several limited edition vinyl color variants available in Dying Wish’s store.
Elaborating on the new record, vocalist Emma Boster shared “Flesh Stays Together is a discovery, a journey of grief and a statement. Together we face the most unacceptable conditions in our lifetimes. Every tragedy becomes our own yet we have never been more separated. Flesh is a vicious wake up call. Slowly and painfully we approach the end we deserve.”
Expanding upon “I’ll Know You’re Not Around” she noted, “The song expresses weakness and deep regret when faced with the ongoing pain on the surface of our dependency with one another. The unavoidable conflict, betrayal and abandonment that lie within the cracks of our society. An acceptance of grief.”
Carrillo added, “It opens up where this band can go and how vulnerable things can be. Whether it is by our own accord or not, life is both vulnerable and artistic. Even in the most confusing of times.”
Recorded with producer Will Putney [Knocked Loose, Nothing, Full of Hell], Flesh Stays Together follows Dying Wish’s 2023 studio album, Symptoms of Survival, a crushing body of work which saw the band masterfully devour an array of extreme sounds and shape them into one of the year’s most uncompromising and celebrated heavy releases. On Flesh Stays Together, Dying Wish return with an unrelenting collection that sees them continuing to push at their limits as they paint a vivid portrait of human suffering and raise calls for resistance.
Formed in Portland, Oregon in 2018, Dying Wish is fronted by vocalist Emma Boster, alongside guitarists Sam Reynolds and Pedro Carrillo, bassist Jon Mackey and drummer Jeff Yambra. Drawing on the visceral energy of metallic hardcore while injecting a sharp, contemporary urgency, Dying Wish creates songs that are as politically aware as they are sonically punishing. Their debut full-length, Fragments of a Bitter Memory (2021), announced them as a vital voice in the genre – a ceaseless exploration of personal trauma, social unrest, and inner transformation. In 2023, they returned with Symptoms of Survival, a darker, heavier, and more nuanced evolution of their sound, praised for its brutal conviction and dynamic ferocity. Through nonstop touring, explosive live performances, and a clear sense of purpose, Dying Wish have established themselves as one of the most essential and uncompromising acts in modern heavy music.
