Entheos announce new album ‘Empty On The Inside’

ENTHEOS have announced a brand new album!

Titled Empty On The Inside, the upcoming release from the American alternative metal outfit is set for release on October 23rd via Metal Blade Records. The album is the follow-up to the band’s 2023 album Time Will Take Us All and sees the band building upon the progressive extreme metal sound that has defined their previous work.

Speaking about the album, the band shares, “Empty On The Inside is a statement piece for us. From the start, our goal was to capture the raw, visceral energy that made ’90s rock and metal so impactful and timeless by prioritizing authentic performances and our individual voices as musicians over hyper-polished modern production.”

Alongside the announcement, the band have released the new single, Golden Crown. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from the title track, which was released last year.

Speaking about the track, vocalist Chaney Crabb shares, “Golden Crown is a song that we spent a few years writing and re-writing until we felt that we really had it right. The chorus of the song was originally written in 2020, long before we began working on this album, and it was so strong that we knew we had to include it on the album. Once the song was finished, it became obvious to us that this was what we wanted to release as our first single. When writing this song, we channeled a lot of our favorite bands and influences from the 90s. We were aiming to write a ‘heavier’ version of a 90s rock song that included creepy synths, huge chorus and an explosive breakdown.

Lyrically, the song is about losing yourself in a deeply destructive attachment that feels both empowering and imprisoning. The formed relationship has become inseparable from your identity. The lyric, ‘I’ve worn you like a golden crown year after year,’ represents a burden that is destroying you, but has also become how you define yourself.”
