TANTRUM Releases Hard-Hitting New Single "W.A.I.L." (When All Is Lost)"
TANTRUM, the Glasgow-based metal powerhouse, released their latest single "W.A.I.L." (When All Is Lost) on August 5th. This powerful track, taken from their upcoming album "No Place For The Damned," addresses the often overlooked issue of homelessness and society's attitudes towards those living on the streets.
"W.A.I.L." showcases TANTRUM's signature blend of crushing riffs and thought-provoking lyrics. The song delves into the struggle for compassion and understanding faced by those who have lost everything, challenging listeners to confront their own preconceptions about homelessness.
Vocalist Mark Reid, who penned both the music and lyrics for "W.A.I.L.," says, "This song is a call for empathy. It's about looking beyond the surface and recognizing the humanity in everyone, regardless of their circumstances."
The single was released as a double A-side, paired with TANTRUM's explosive cover of Iron Maiden's classic "Aces High" which is exclusive to the CD version of the single and won't be available on streaming platforms.
"W.A.I.L." serves as a powerful preview of TANTRUM's third album, "No Place For The Damned," set for release on August 30th. Early reviews of "No Place For The Damned" have been overwhelmingly positive, with critics praising TANTRUM's musical evolution. These glowing critiques highlight the current lineup's ability to push the envelope while maintaining the band's core sound, showcasing TANTRUM's growth while cementing their position as innovators in the modern metal scene.
Bassist and producer Chris Horne reflects on the band's progression: "We've really challenged ourselves with this album, and the response has been incredible. It feels like we've hit a new stride creatively, and that's resonating with both critics and fans."
TANTRUM continues to push boundaries with their evolved sound and songwriting prowess, cementing their place as one of the most exciting acts in modern metal. "W.A.I.L." is sure to become a fan favorite and a staple of the band's electrifying live shows.
The "W.A.I.L." single is available on all major streaming platforms, with the CD version featuring the exclusive Iron Maiden cover available for purchase through the band's official website and select retailers.
The CD single was released in two collectable versions. The first features the striking original artwork for "W.A.I.L.," while the second offers fans a unique twist on a classic. This special edition showcases a re-imagined, modernized version of Iron Maiden's iconic "Aces High" artwork, cleverly incorporating the central character from the "W.A.I.L." cover. This creative blend of homage and originality perfectly encapsulates TANTRUM's approach to their music – honoring their influences while carving out their own distinct identity.
