i did hit the button!

[@NaginiRiddle]

this track is extraordinarily blegh.

[@TwoIdiotsGames]

Love this song but where is the make them suffer reaction 😭

[@korskorpi]

please do a cover w/ tabs 🙏

[@rocketlaunch99]

Melodic vocals in between the heavy like a perfect tasty sandwich. That's metalcore

[@Nyeusi]

This is the best comeback in metal as of recent

The cleans do nothing for me

[@Shjorts]

And the fact they’re doing a 10 year anniversary tour for Hollow Bodies 😩😩😩

[@FairyCRat]

Well said. BTF totally embody that transition between the 2nd and 3rd waves of metalcore. Glad they're still going.

[@tommasoluchetti8796]

What do you mean for 2nd and 3rd waves? I know the distinction between metallic hardcore, melodic metalcore and electronicore/crabcore, but I've never heard of waves

[@zerutul101]

lol best comment of the day - well done sir (accurate 100%)

[@CrabCoreKing]

i mean to be fair they havent been the same since they dropped Zach. His screams are def under appreciated

[@zerutul101]

@@CrabCoreKing also accurate, no one wanted “I see dance gavin dance” post-Zach Once the brother drummer left the band - that’s the real tombstone in heavy/talent lol

[@clintbeastwood5116]

@@CrabCoreKing I liked Treehouse as an album. I just feel that their new songs are emulating the worst aspects of that style. All In never sounded right to me and was borderline cringy, at times, and that seems to be more in line with what they're doing here.

[@Healthywave99]

​@@zerutul101 the brother didn't leave the band, he just changed positions and took over the electronic elements and does vocals with Devin.

[@acerhythm7026]

Whoever their new drummer is did really well. traynor is some massive shoes to fill.

[@jarlnooch1882]

For sure. Traynor was always a fucking beast on drums, super underappreciated drummer.

[@benlagey9149]

I LOVE Blessthefall. Missed them so much. Pleeeease do a 'How to Blessthefall' as you said, they do heavy REALLY well.

[@TheHiddenValar]

Sounds like Hollow Bodies mixed with Hard Feelings. I love it.

[@tooernn]

This song is absolute fantastic, love it. Gave so much hype listening to it so this week have been: "BlesstheFall - his last walk" album on repeat after wednesday.

[@motoconvo6995]

INCREDIBLE comeback. This rips but is also bouncy. Amazing.

[@nokiot9]

Hell yeah I’m so stoked for this album. So many good ones hitting this summer.

[@antonio4259]

This is such a bop that I cannot wait to hear even more. This is such a good track and so very much a return I didn’t know I needed this badly.

[@Hellavit]

It’s songs like this and Faithless by If I Were You that I can genuinely say now THIS! THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE PERFECTION OF WHAT METALCORE IS!

[@nickkolodziej9422]

If I were you is amazing! My band that’ll be dropping our debut single soon goes to their drummer/singer Randy to record! He is an incredible songwriter and incredible producer as well!

[@idonotexist_]

I've been listening to BTF (with Beau) since late MS/HS, and have continued to ever since. Have seen them live 6 times, met them, blah blah blah. I ABSOLUTELYY LOVED SEEING THIS ON MY HOME PAGE! As I don't really keep up with metal news outside of some YT, it was a surprise, and a DAMN good one 🙌🏿🙌🏿

[@laboinagaming]

Bro I'm so ducking excited I got my three tickets this morning the very second they went on sale. At a no barricade venue like holy shit it's gon be wild.

I've been a fan of blessthefall for a long time, this is more than just a comeback!!! It is sick AF!!!! IT IS THE DEFINITION OF METALCORE!

[@davidismetal10]

Blessthefall is my favorite metalcore band and their comeback I am 10000000% completely satisfied with I am so stoked for their new album I haven’t been stoked for a metalcore bands new stuff in FOREVER!!! Blessthefall changing the game yet again!!!🤘🏽🔥🔥🔥

[@3137tim]

They're doing a 10 year anniversary tour for hollow bodies and I'm so excited to see them in Seattle 🤘

[@cameronravenhilltv7778]

The songs preference of emphasis on the 1 and 3 rather than 2 and 4 is actually refreshing

[@TheRedAnvil40]

Nik: They use stupid f'ing noises Also Nik: I do that too LOL

[@prime4939]

I liked the chorus so much, this is such a great song.

[@troygregory3441]

Miss May I and Bless The Fall will always be my 2 favorite metalcore bands ever

[@DanyFairuzFirdaus]

I thought they were the only two old bands who came back and kept their heavy sound. I don't know if any other bands have come back and are still heavy. They're mostly turned soft. Like Asking Alexandria and I See Stars recently.

[@nightwingx0126]

Love that both bands are keeping the heavy . That last MMI album was amazing and it looks like the next BTF will be as well

[@coleG112]

I’m all for artists creating the music they want, but I just have such a hard time believing that all of these classic 08-13 metalcore bands all truly deeply want to create Generic Stadium Rock With A Mild Breakdown because something about it resonates so strongly with them. It’s so nice to have a band know what they’re good at and just create what we’ve been wanting since they left.

[@emeyer2323]

Honestly very well said, I couldn’t agree more. I basically have kept maybe like 15 bands around who transformed into Pop stadium rock because I ain’t gonna lie, sometimes I love that shit driving home from work. But Metalcore, heavy metal etc. needs to stick with certain bands because you are correct I can’t imagine 10 years ago being in a band making Heavy Metal and just being comfortable transitioning into something that is not even close to what they used to sound like.

[@coleG112]

@@emeyer2323 Yeah, I don’t have ANY issue with the artists that *do* go that route. I enjoy Asking’s or Architects’ new stuff when I’m in the mood for it. But even Mike Shinoda acknowledged it, when they finally dropped Fighting Myself and now they had TWO old school-style singles at the top of their charts, he was like “I always said ‘nooo we can’t just do the same thing we did before. We gotta be new and different every time’ and now I look at Lost and I go ‘oh…crap’” Like when Mike Shinoda, the NFT huffing, AI art pushing, “we MUST innovate with every album” guy admits that sometimes it’s okay to stick to what people love you for, that’s when you know there’s been a shift in the culture

[@coleG112]

@@emeyer2323 And I feel the same about video games tbh. I don’t need GTA 6 to be “different from any GTA we’ve played before” like the Take 2 guy said. I need it to be the good GTA game that we all know and love. I don’t need Halo to be a competitive almost-hero-shooter. I need it to be the power fantasy, fun-first party game we all grew up with and are begging for.

[@emeyer2323]

@@coleG112 Dam Cole you’re speaking my language again.. literally me and video games (especially Halo) making me feel like I was traveling across galaxies with a .50 cal armor penetrating Sniper, still my favorite experience and memory of all time, Halo launching all the way back in 2001 and just being obsessed and blown away by a video game. Literally answered prayers and fantasies I didn’t even know I had until then. Good talking bro!

[@TheBanana93]

@@coleG112 Like sure invent NEW titles that help push the boundaries but taking already existing formulas that work and changing it completely but sticking the same name on it has always seemed mental to me. It's greed but also the companies know people are dumb and will buy it...

The comebacks are crazy right now. Just like With Blood Comes Cleansing put out some banger deathcore tracks in these past few weeks. I hear that Haste the Day and Saving Grace is coming back too

[@storiesofastranger]

Fuck. I would check their social media every once in a while to see what happened to these guys. Recently their wikipedia had the dreaded "was" a band because apparently the members removed the band related bios from their accounts so I guess everyone assumed they were done. This is just so perfect. Walking with strangers making a comeback next, please?

[@hackaustinn]

i was so hyped when they teased this and almost cried when i got to hear the actual song. cant believe btf is fucking back been waiting so fucknig long for more btf

Hollow Bodies is what introduced me to modern metal as well as a bit of Rob Zombie and Avenged Sevenfold when I was about 11 years old, before that it was all the older stuff like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and AC/DC from 6 to 11 years old.
