COUNTERPARTS

RELEASE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED ALBUM, NOTHING LEFT TO LOVE OUT NOW

 


 

“It remains a thrill to hear this band execute their genre’s hallmarks with an ungodly intensity and no regard for your eardrums.” – Stereogum

“It’s a real pulverizing song at its core, but those bright, melodic leads are pure ear candy.” – Brooklyn Vegan

Delivering tried and true hardcore while maintaining a fresh, passionate sound, Counterparts’ “Wings Of Nightmares” showcases the kind of infectious hooks and anthemic vocals that get crowds circle-moshing in camaraderie.” – Revolver

“One of 2019’s most anticipated releases”Kerrang

 

Counterparts have officially dropped their highly anticipated six full-length album. Nothing Left To Love shows the band moving their uniquely captivating sound forward without losing the musical DNA that broke them back in the early 2010s. Produced by Will Putney (Every Time I Die, The Acacia Strain), the album muses on many of the topics vocalist Brendan Murphy has in the past: life’s darkness, self-destructive tendencies and the self-flagellation they beget. Not only does Murphy himself come full circle, but the album found Counterparts welcoming former guitarists Jesse Doreen and Alex Re back into the fray to aid with the writing process. For all parties, the homecoming was cathartic and meaningful.

 

“They never stopped caring about Counterparts,” Murphy says of his former bandmates. “They came back and were giving us their stamp of approval, wanting to make this the best record yet. That’s pretty special. That doesn’t happen to a lot of bands.”

 

This time around, the singer is writing not just about the end result but also the because, willing to shoulder some of the blame more than he ever has in the past. It’s easy to point the finger at others for the harm they’ve caused us; it’s far harder to accept that the root might lie at the opposite end of that hand.

 

“My perspective [on what happened in my life] has changed so much, even in just a few years,” Murphy says. “It’s a terrible spot to be in, but some of my best material creatively came from me just being willing to admit things out loud ”

 

Ahead of today’s release, the metalcore giants released Paradise and Plague, Separate Wounds and Wings of Nightmares to praise from fans and press alike, including Stereogum, Revolver, Brooklyn Vegan, Kerrang!, Alternative Press, idobi Radio and more.

Nothing Left To Love is the follow up to the band’s highly praised 2017 release You’re Not You Anymore. The album landed in the Billboard Top 200 and saw praise from outlets including Alternative Press, Rocksound, New Noise Magazine, Exclaim!, The Alternative, Loudwire and more.
