South Carolinian metalcore band Your Spirit Dies have had a May 02nd release date set for their debut album, “My Gnawing Pains Will Never Rest“. That record has been locked-in for a May 02nd release through MNRK Heavy, with the new single “In The Depths Of Grief” having launched today. A music video for it directed by Robbie Grantham has also been shared online. Vocalist Brandon Byars said of the record:
“The record encapsulates every single thing we’re about. We’re five people who were born in small towns in the South. We were never supposed to leave these places; we were ‘supposed’ to live and die here. For us, the simple fact we’re doing this is huge. We tried to craft an album that stands on its own, and we busted our asses to make it as different as we possibly could.”
Byars also shared his thoughts on this first single, offering:
“It’s personal. My mom is seventy-one, and she just got back from the hospital. ‘In The Depths Of Grief’ is about watching your loved ones grow older, wither, and eventually die. She isn’t there yet, but she has bad heart problems. When I was a teen, we had our differences. I did the whole rebel thing and got into stuff I probably shouldn’t have. I’m not as angry as I was, so our relationship is definitely better than it’s ever been.”
