Via Pure Noise Records
Available for Pre-Order at smarturl.it/NothingLeftToLove
Canadian metalcore giants Counterparts are getting ready to hit the road for a US Headline tour with support from Stray From The Path, Varials and Chamber. Kicking off in Los Angeles on October 24th, the package will be rounded out by performances from Dying Wish, Greyhaven and END on select dates. A full list of tour dates are below with all information and tickets available at http://nothingleft2love.ca/.
The upcoming tour is in celebration of the band’s forthcoming record, Nothing Left To Love. Due out November 1 via Pure Noise Records, 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.
“I know I’ve said this for every record we’ve ever released…” shares Murphy. “But ‘Nothing Left to Love’ is best Counterparts record…If you fuck with the band you’ll probably love it, and if you don’t then maybe we’ve finally honed our craft enough for you to give a shit.”
Produced by Will Putney (Every Time I Die, The Acacia Strain), 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. It’s a musical tour through the band’s history, as more melodic elements sharply swerve into caustic breakdowns reminiscent of their debut album, 2010’s Prophets.
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 “
