Ohio hardcore/metalcore crew Beartooth have announced their fifth full-length album, The Surface, will be released October 13 via Red Bull Records. Check out their latest single, “Might Love Myself,” now!
“Might Love Myself” follows previous singles “Riptide” and “Sunshine!” as teasers for the upcoming album, the follow-up to 2021’s Below.
Frontman Caleb Shomo says of the new album:
“Beartooth’s entire discography has been snapshots of my inner monologue and emotional state over the years with a recurring theme: depression and self-loathing.
“It’s been tough to understand why I’ve felt the way I do for so long. During the pandemic, I was faced with two distinct paths in life. One, I continue doing nothing to manage the realities of my mental health and continue down a path of self-destruction, ultimately ending in my demise. Two, choose to do the work needed to maintain a healthier relationship with myself, no matter how difficult or painful.
“This album is the story of my beginnings in the new world I’ve created for myself. One focused on health, self-love, positivity, understanding, hard work, and most of all second chances. At the end of the day, life is short for all of us. We can’t escape the end, so why not make friends with it and live in a world focused on living a personally fulfilling life?”
Check out “Might Love Myself” below. Preorders are live for The Surface merch, exclusive limited vinyl, and signed long-box CDs. Get yours here.
