WOUNDED TOUCH ANNOUNCE UPCOMING ALBUM “A VIVID DEPICTION OF COLLAPSE” VIA SMARTPUNK RECORDS

Smartpunk Records‘ metal heavy-hitters WoundedTouch have announced their new full-length record “A Vivid Depiction Of Collapse” out on May 16th.The album marks a vital chapter in the band’s growth as an eleven-track saga detailing the eleven stages of grief and acceptance, set to an unrelentingly heavy soundtrack.

Since their inception, the Michigan outfit has used musical guerilla campaign tactics and a resilient DIY work ethic to make their way onto nationwide festivals and a full UK tour while gaining notoriety from metal’s top publications including Metal Hammer, Brooklyn Vegan, and New Noise Magazine.

Speaking about the new single, “Consequence and Broadcast” Wounded Touch says, “Musically this wasn’t the first song written for the record, but it was the first song we’d completed with everyone as a band. It’s our trail of breadcrumbs from the last record to this one, and everything we’ve wanted to touch on musically between then. As much as we’re a bunch of hardcore and metalcore fans, we all grew up just as much into the posthardcore bands of the aughts and that very specific sound. The middle section and ending of the song was something that naturally developed when we wanted to lean in to some of the more melodic and poetic sounds of our influences (stuff like Hopesfall and Alexisonfire) without knowing what direction the song would go in and by the time we finished the record, it felt like a perfect encapsulation of the band’s current and past style.”
