Beartooth announce new album 'Below,' release new single "The Past Is Dead"

Hardcore punk group Beartooth have unveiled details on their new studio album.

Titled Below, the 12-track release will arrive on June 25 via Red Bull Records. To celebrate the announcement, Beartooth unveiled their new single “The Past Is Dead, which comes with a Wyatt Clough-directed music video. Beartooth vocalist Caleb Shomo said this about the forthcoming new album and the band’s new single:

"Below is by far my favorite album I've made to date. It covers the dark side of dealing with mental strain during the last year. I gave it all I had — musically and lyrically. Is it too dark? Possibly, but it was as honest as I could be about how I felt. I hope everyone is ready to strap in for a wild ride of head banging and rocking.

'The Past Is Dead' was one of the first songs written for the album. Various versions have been in the bank for about two years now, and it really set the tone for the whole album writing process. The video is meant to depict the beginning of the journey to the deepest and darkest parts of my mind, which was the fuel used to make Below."

Pre-orders for the record can be made here. Below is the follow-up to Beartooth’s 2018 studio album Disease, which topped both the Hard Rock Albums and Independent Albums charts.
