Metalcore band Cave In have dropped another song from their forthcoming studio album Heavy Pendulum.

Unveiled today, “Blinded By A Blaze” comes alongside a Frank Huang-directed music video featuring footage from the band’s sold-out performances at Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus Bar last year. Vocalist Stephen Brodsky said this about the new tune:

"I had the idea for 'Blinded By A Blaze' during the Final Transmission days, but it really came to life for Heavy Pendulum. There were 5 or 6 songs in the initial batch of demos that I sent to the band at the beginning of the writing process, but 'Blinded' was the one that created a call to action - it's basically what sold JR, Adam & Nate on writing a new Cave In album. Lyrically, it's a sonic photograph of a strange magical moment that I had while driving along the Pacific Coast Highway during the golden hour, and the feeling of looking back on it years later - something everyone should try to experience at least once in their lifetime."

Physical pre-orders for Heavy Pendulum can be made here while digital pre-orders can be made here. The 14-track album will be released on May 20 via Relapse Records.
