Soul Blind spiral on heavy new single “Tribe”
Today, Soul Blind shares “Tribe”, the third single from their long-awaited full-length, Feel It All Around, set for release November 11th on Other People Records. “Tribe” hits hard out the gate, burgeoning with thick guitars and resonance. Chords spiral through a sense of distress as vocals project lyrics filled with thoughts of dread and unease. The track sees the band’s blend of alternative and grunge taking a heavier tone, nodding influence to earlier releases from acts like Deftones and Quicksand.
Diving into the lyrics, vocalist Cen states: “This is about the sunken place/purgatory. A sonic representation of the last few seconds of life before descending to an internal mind hell. Triggered by being stuck in a loop, the mind jumps down this dark alleyway that leads you to believe this is what a fearful, non embraced death is. Panic and anxiety ridden, this song is sonic hell.”
Written during the pandemic, Feel It All Around follows the band’s 2021 EP, Third Chain, and deals with emotional strain and taking on the world around you. When it came time to record the LP, the band knew they wanted to work with someone who could challenge them to be their best selves. Entering the studio in early 2022 with Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip (Title Fight, Turnover) at Studio 4 Recordings provided just that. The eleven songs on the album are filled with layers of melodies, ranging from grunge heavy tracks to fuzzy, shoegaze moments. The tracks thoroughly translate into a live setting, with Soul Blind having already given fans a little taste on recent tours with Drug Church and Angel Dut. This fall, the band will head to Europe and the UK for the first time, supporting Stick To Your Guns, Knocked Loose, LANDMVRKS, and Scowl, which you can view dates for below.
Feel It All Around is available for pre-order now through Other People Records
