Every Time I Die have announced an October 22nd release date through Epitaph for their long-awaited ninth studio album, “Radical“. Arriving alongside word of the album’s release date is the below official music video for the band’s newest single from it, “Post-Boredom“. That video was directed by the band’s former drummer Daniel Davison and his significant other Tes Hash.
The group once again had Will Putney (The Acacia Strain, Body Count) produce this forthcoming album and have launched pre-orders for it here. Speaking of this newly shared single from the album, the band’s frontman Keith Buckley offered:
“‘Post-Boredom‘ was the first song I ever wrote that gave me the feeling of real Truth. I wasn’t hiding any secret confessions in metaphors, I was very much fed up with living an unfulfilling life and felt that I needed a death (either figuratively or literally) in order to have a fighting chance at finding new meaning.
I see this song from a distance. It’s reflective but also, finally, detached. not a full ego death, but indicative that the process needed to start immediately in my own life. If you read the lyrics and it resonates with you, then you also need to recognize that you might be feeling unseen in your current form. So, what are YOU going to do about it if given the gift of death?”
Buckley also spoke further about the lyrical themes of the album in general, offering:
“I’m dealing with difficult matters this time that isn’t only personal for me but are also universal and more communal experiences. The songs are realistic in that they acknowledge that things require a lot of work. But it’s ultimately a very hopeful and uplifting record.”
