Recently, Armor For Sleep released their new single, “Whatever, Who Cares” and to coincide with the release of the song, the band also put out a music video!

“Whatever, Who Cares” is off the upcoming album, The Rain Museum, which will be out September 9th via Equal Vision Records! It also follows the release of their previous single, “How Far Apart”.

Vocalist and guitarist, Ben Jorgensen explains the meaning behind the song and video by saying, “‘Whatever, Who Cares’ is a song about coming to grips with the fact that certain wounds are inescapably self-inflicted. But instead of this being a song about having the strength to overcome these truths, this song is about the moments where just accepting the absurdity of it all seems like the least painful route to take. The video follows the story of a couple (the same couple from our ‘How Far Apart’ music video) being subject to a strange experiment at the hands of a mysterious organization. Their relationship is engineered to end in repeated failure, and they find themselves unable to prevail, ultimately choosing poison bottles over fighting to escape the cycle.”

Armor For Sleep’s upcoming full-length, The Rain Museum, is 17 years in the making. Originally planned as the follow up to What to Do When You Are Dead, the album had been shelved due to “bad advice” leading the band in another direction. After a fifteen year absence from the studio, The Rain Museum will prove to be well-worth the wait! You can pre-save and preorder the album HERE.
