Underoath have today released their new single, ‘Let Go’, their first for new home MNRK Heavy.
In discussing the song, the band said, “This is actually the first song we completed after recording (last year’s) Voyeurist. It took a few different forms but we got it to a place where we knew this is what it should be. It’s about letting go of whatever trauma or demons that might be holding you back. As hard as it is to make those decisions sometimes, I feel like we can never grow without stepping out of those toxic environments.”
In February, the band announced their new label signing to MNRK Heavy for a worldwide deal. “Rarely does the opportunity present itself to partner with a band as amazing as Underoath,” said, Scott Givens, SVP of MNRK Music Group. “When that opportunity was presented, we seized it immediately, and speaking for the entire company; we are truly honored they gave us a chance to work with them on their upcoming recordings. The band has had a remarkable career, and all of us at the MRNK Music Group can’t wait to accompany them on their next phase of it.”
Underoath added, “Choosing who we partner with in releasing our music is always a huge decision. The team at MNRK simply rules, understands our vision, and is passionate about the music. We couldn’t be more excited and ready to work with the MNRK team to release some of our favorite work to date.”
The band’s Blind Obedience Tour with support from Periphery and Loathe starts today, March 3 in Silver Spring and concludes on April 2 in Nashville, before the band arrive in the UK at the end of May for their Slam Dunk Festival appearances.
