Counterparts announce new album ‘A Eulogy For Those Still Here’
COUNTERPARTS have announced a new album!
Titled A Eulogy For Those Still Here, the upcoming album from the Canadian melodic hardcore band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2019’s Nothing Left To Love, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Pure Noise Records.
Engineered/produced by Will Putney [KNOCKED LOOSE, EVERY TIME I DIE, VEIN.FM], the upcoming album finds vocalist Brendan Murphy at a crossroads, preoccupied with the inevitability of change and endings. “I think I deal with things by preparing myself for the end,” he explains. “With so much of this record I’m mourning the loss of someone that’s still alive or saying goodbye to something that hasn’t left yet.”
The result is a high stakes record written as a true statement of intent–a mix of crushing heaviness and stark atmospherics that draws on everything the band have been honing for the past 15 years. “All of these things I have are still a big part of my life but one day they won’t be, and I don’t want to be focusing on that instead of enjoying the time I have with them,” says Murphy. “Maybe I’m saying goodbye preemptively but I think it’s important to say goodbye while you can.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, COUNTERPARTS have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Unwavering Vow.
