Saint Agnes announce new album ‘Bloodsuckers’
SAINT AGNES have announced a new album!
Titled Bloodsuckers, the upcoming album from the UK hard rock band is the follow-up to 2021’s Vampire, and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via Spinefarm Records.
The upcoming album was created in the months following the unexpected and untimely death of vocalist/guitarist Kitty A. Austen’s mother, Bloodsuckers explores a number of themes, including mental illness, pent-up rage, undying love and, of course, grief.
Speaking about the upcoming album, Austen says, “creating this album gave me a reason to get to my feet at a time when I really wasn’t sure if I could. I’ve tried to put everything I’ve been feeling into it, all the pain, the rage, the grief, even the unexpected moments of beauty and belief. I hope it makes you feel less alone. I hope it makes you feel bigger, badder and stronger. We might be damaged but that doesn’t mean we’re worthless. This is a record for the defeated, the crushed. We might be broken but that doesn’t mean we’re not whole. Bloodsuckers forever, SAINT AGNES forever.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; the title track Bloodsuckers.
Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, Austen says, “I wrote Bloodsuckers when I couldn’t take it anymore, when I decided to stop allowing people to crush me, to diminish me. I took my rage and my pain and used it as fuel and I burned. We are not defined by what has been done to us. We decide who we are. We choose who we want to be. We are whole. We are worthy. The video is an introduction to Team Bloodsuckers. Join us.”
