Ashes To New release new song “Die For You” ahead of Reflections album

From Ashes To New recently unveiled their latest single “Die For You” as they gear up for the release of their upcoming album Reflections in April.

The band’s new single, “Die For You,” is a clear indication of what fans can expect from their forthcoming album, Reflections, set to drop on April 17 under the label Better Noise Music. The track comes with a visually captivating music video featuring performer Cruella Morgan and serves as another exciting glimpse into what the band has been working on for their fifth studio release.

Through “Die For You,” From Ashes To New explores the intricate dynamics of a relationship characterized by control, guilt, and imbalance. These themes play a significant role in the storytelling aspect of their upcoming album, reflecting a deep exploration of emotional struggles within relationships.

Co-founder Matt Brandyberry explained that the song delves into that pivotal moment when clarity breaks through in a toxic relationship. He elaborated on how the narrative captures the exhaustion and emotional burden that can come from constantly giving to someone who always demands more.

Lead vocalist Danny Case echoed this sentiment, describing the track as a poignant reflection on the challenges of trying to please a partner who is never truly satisfied. The emotional weight of the lyrics is beautifully complemented by the band’s layered vocal arrangements, heavy guitar riffs, and darker melodic textures, creating a sound that truly captures the essence of the story being told.

“Die For You” is just one of the 12 tracks featured on the upcoming Reflections album, a follow-up to the band’s successful 2018 release, Blackout. Despite initial plans to include 16 demo tracks in their next album, the band made a bold decision to scrap most of the material and start fresh. This move marked a significant creative reset, allowing them to refine their signature sound while exploring new musical horizons.

According to Brandyberry, the goal was to build on the elements that defined From Ashes To New while appealing to both loyal fans and newcomers to their music. The band’s unique blend of rap-influenced vocals, heavy rock instrumentation, and electronic elements has garnered them a strong following since their formation in 2013 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

Throughout their musical journey, From Ashes To New has continuously evolved, drawing inspiration from diverse sources such as Korn, Linkin Park, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, and Pantera. Their ability to seamlessly blend rock, metal, and hip-hop elements has set them apart in the music scene, propelling them to global success.

While the band has seen several lineup changes over the years, co-founder Matt Brandyberry has remained the driving creative force behind From Ashes To New. Their current lineup, featuring vocalist Danny Case, guitarist Lance Dowdle, drummer Mat Madiro, and guitarist Jimmy Bennett, showcases a talented group of musicians dedicated to pushing their musical boundaries.

With each album release, From Ashes To New continues to captivate audiences with their innovative sound and poignant storytelling. As they gear up for the launch of Reflections, fans can expect a dynamic collection of tracks that not only resonate with their core audience but also attract new listeners with their fresh approach to rock music.
