Spiritbox vocalist Courtney LaPlante and her bandmate/husband, guitarist Mike Stringer, have paired with Los Angeles, CA-based multi-platinum DJ duo SLANDER on their rock/dubstep collab, “Under My Skin“. SLANDER have been playing the pairing live for sometime now, with VASTIVE overseeing the production duties on this finished version. SLANDER relayed the following of the song and getting to work with Courtney, Mike and VASTIVE:
“The time has come. ‘Under My Skin‘ is finally here. The journey this song has been through is nothing short of an odyssey. We have played this song over the course of 3 worldwide tours at over 300 shows. It truly has been tested and has hit the mark.
Getting to work with Spiritbox on this song was such an incredible experience. Their kindness, professionalism, skill, and passion was so refreshing. They gave the song so much intensity and light.. bringing it to new heights that were previously unimaginable. Also getting to watch Courtney scream in the studio is something we will never forget. The precision of her vocal performance during recording was astounding. Additionally we gotta big up Mike for adding some amazing riffs and insane guitar lead lines. We are over the moon about how this collaboration turned out and how well our sounds worked together.
Lastly we give flowers to Vastive. He is an untouchable producer whose distinctive sound brought so much aggressive power to the song. We have known him for years, and he is not only one of the hardest working artists in our scene but also one of the nicest people to work with as well. His discography is deep and we encourage everyone to check it out. Under My Skin is out now! More music is on the way soon! We love you!”
LaPlante said of her involvement:
“The song has been stuck in my head ever since hearing the first demo. I’m really excited for the Slander fans to hear the final version, because they’ve been hearing the demo version at Slander shows for a long time now!”
