Moodring announce debut album ‘Stargazer’
MOODRING have announced their debut album!
Titled Stargazer, the upcoming album from the Florida-based alt-metal band is their debut full-length record and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via UNFD.
“We were excited to explore deeper themes and different aspects of our band throughout the full-length,” shares vocalist Hunter Young, who co-produced the debut album at his home studio, The Swamp Sound, alongside collaborator Austin Coupe. “The album dives into our pool of influences unabashedly but resurfaces as its own entity. Each song was written with personal meaning and multiple themes, whilst remaining ambiguous and open enough for listeners to relate in their own way.”
Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming debut album; SYNC.wav. The new single is the third song to be released from the upcoming debut album, following on from Constrict and Disintegrate.
Speaking about the new song, Hunter adds, “the intention of SYNC.wav was to create something that was blatantly erotic but expressed through one of the more crushing and heavy sides of the album. It describes the moment you start falling for someone or something, the intoxicating romantic aura of it all. But on the flipside, it also addresses a human tendency to drown in that very same romance. It’s about losing yourself completely, for better and worse. The title itself highlights that inherent ambiguity, with opposing meanings stemming from the one word that is repeated throughout – to “sink”, or to “sync”. Despite the overt sexual references on the surface, at its core, the lyrics tackle two different things that all too often collide with each other: romance and addiction. Addicted to love, addicted to sex, addicted to the moment.”
