Video: Hawthorne Heights - Constant Dread
Earlier this week, Hawthorne Heights announced their eighth full-length album The Rain Just Follows Me, which will be released digitally on September 10, 2021 via Pure Noise Records!!
“The most unbelievable part of this story is that this entire album was written and recorded BEFORE the pandemic,” says singer, JT Woodruff. “All of this darkness and turmoil is basically a summation of the coldest and loneliest nights I’ve tried to reconcile for the past 17 years.”
To help celebrate the announcement of the album, Hawthorne Heights also released the first single titled “Constant Dread” featuring Counterparts’ very own Brendan Murphy!
“When writing, I tend to dig through memories, both good and bad,” says JT. “In ‘Constant Dread’, I was searching through one of my favorite tour memories. Warped Tour 2017, in the tour bus village. One of our favorite hardcore bands, Counterparts, was hosting karaoke. As I was standing there, Brendan hit play on Niki FM, and then threw me the microphone, and as I was singing my own song to a jury of my peers, I realized that I need to loosen up. This should be fun, not agony. When I thought about that moment, while laying bed in the throes of the terror-filled gaze of the moonlight, I knew we needed to put Brendan in this song.“
The Rain Just Follows Me can be pre-ordered HERE. It will also be released in stores with limited edition vinyl variants on October 22nd!
