Set It Off Released their last album back in 2019, ‘Midnight’ demonstrated a depth and breadth of musicianship, as the band incorporated live strings, live horns, and a live gospel choir into the album. The album was then followed by ‘After Midnight’, an EP consisting of B-sides.
The band are now embarking on the final chapter to this body of work and period in their history with the release of the appropriately titled ‘Midnight (The Final Chapter)’.
‘Midnight (The Final Chapter)’ will be comprised of all the tracks from ‘Midnight’, and the ‘After Midnight’ EP, as well as three additional acoustic tracks. To celebrate the new deluxe edition the threesome have shared a new acoustic version of the lead single ‘Killer In The Mirror’.
“‘Killer in the Mirror’ seems to always apply to my life,” Singer Cody Carson said. “I’ve developed more and more trust issues as I grow — almost as a protective measure. When I first wrote this song, it came from a place of pure anger, and sure, that anger is there. But as your emotions develop, so does your perspective. I wanted to show the sad side of the message of ‘Killer in the Mirror’ and really draw out/expand the emotional spectrum by introducing the orchestra towards the end to almost give a feeling of optimism. As if to say, ‘People will try to hurt you, but you’ll make it out alive every time.'”
