Hot on the heels of the long awaited announcement of their debut album earlier this week, Spiritbox have dropped the official music video to their latest single, ‘Secret Garden’. Check it out below.
Speaking on the release of the new track, frontwoman & this week’s Kerrang! cover star Courtney LaPlante shared “I think this is the most scared I’ve been to put out a song, because I realise as we continue to release music in single format, listeners can start to assume what kind of band we are, and are alarmed when we do not meet those assumptions.”
“I want to continue to showcase the fluidity that is inherent in heavy music, and even though this is just one part of a full body of work that may not sound exactly like this song, it is a song that we love and are obsessed with. I celebrate variation. ‘Secret Garden’ is exciting to me, for this reason. I’m scared but excited, like I’m about to hit the big drop on a roller coaster, and I’m fully embracing that.”
The band – who are currently one of the hottest new bands in heavy music – thrilled fans this week with the official announcement of their highly anticipated debut album, ‘Eternal Blue’, which is set for release on September 17th, pre-orders are available now here..
Spiritbox sold out of all limited vinyl variant pre-orders within the first 24 hours of announcement, including exclusive designs for Revolver, Rock Sound, Impericon, and Newbury Comics, plus another 4 colour variants available via the band’s webstore.
