Today, the band has shared another new single — "Drag Me Under", featuring Alpha Wolf's Lochie Keogh. And yes, it rips. The song was co-written by Tony Cappocchi from Dragged Under and produced and mixed by Hiram Hernandez. Listen to it here.
"The first time I heard the instrumental for 'Drag Me Under,' my mind was absolutely blown away" says Bokan. "This song punishes you relentlessly then lets you breathe for about four seconds then continues to punish. I knew we needed a top tier feature to really make this song stand out so we recruited Lochie Keogh from Alpha Wolf. It's pretty obvious this song is totally different than anything we're ever done but still sounds like Blessthefall”.
The video for ‘Drag Me Under’ will be released next Wednesday, Aug 28th.
blessthefall's notched back-to-back Top 25 debuts on the Billboard 200 with "Hollow Bodies" [2013] and "To Those Left Behind" [2015], while 2018's "Hard Feelings" marked their third straight Top 5 bow on the Top Alternative Albums Chart. With the latter, Unclear claimed the band "may have struck serious gold" while Alternative Press applauded how "blessthefall blend old-school vibes and a fresh new sound". Speaking to their enduring legacy, they've racked up hundreds of millions of streams with "Hey Baby, Here's That Song You Wanted" at 33.8 million Spotify streams followed by "Hollow Bodies" at 26.2 million Spotify streams in addition to landing syncs in franchises such as Splinter Cell. In the wake of a successful 10-year anniversary tour to celebrate "Witness" in 2019, blessthefall went quiet for the next two years. Between the global pandemic and various other gigs, the members still kept the lines of communication open. The band now emerges from a half-decade of dormancy, and not a moment too soon.
