Blessthefall Announce New Album 'Gallows', Release New Single, "mallxcore"

Metalcore act Blessthefall has announced that they will be releasing their brand new album, Gallows, on September 5th via Rise Records. It is the band’s first full-length album since 2018’s Hard Feelings.

To celebrate the announcement, the band has unveiled the first new single from the album, titled “mallxcore”. In a press release announcing the album, vocalist Beau Bokan stated the following:

"You ever hear a song from a band and go, 'Holy fucking shit, they nailed it? That’s what 'mallxcore' will make you feel. This song was so fun to write as we went in with no intentions other than writing the most blessthefall song possible. The song title is a poke at the r/Metalcore reddit haters."

Regarding the forthcoming video for the single:

"We knew the music video for 'mallxcore' needed to be as fun as the song was. We hand-picked Tanner Gordon to direct because of his amazing work with bands like Spiritbox. In the video, we all have normal, mundane jobs then I'm recruited by an over-dramatic party host who needs a band to perform at her shindig...STAT. As a bonus, there are some really cool easter eggs throughout the video that we dropped in there for the hardcore fans!"
