The track, which you can listen to below, is a more subdued but melodic than their previous material with fiery guitar riffs throughout.

It comes after frontwoman Courtney LaPlante, Bring Me The Horizon vocalist Oli Sykes, and producer Grabbitz recently teamed up to create a new Valorant anthem.

Spiritbox’s last album received a four-star review from NME which hailed the record as “awe-inspiring modern metal” and praised the group for “continuing to push the boundaries of what metalcore can be”.

It added: “A swaggering display of confidence by a band in total command of their craft, ‘Tsunami Sea’ is solid-as-granite proof that heavy music retains its vitality and relevancy in 2025.

The punishing elegance of Spiritbox’s new album will punch a hole through your chest and wrap its aqueous arms around your heart.”.

Spiritbox recently performed ‘Soft Spine’ from the record at the 2026 Grammys, where they were nominated for Best Metal Performance for the third time.

Later this week they will embark on their biggest UK headline tour to date.

That run will begin at Glasgow’s SEC on September 12 and also visit Nottingham, Manchester and Cardiff, before concluding at London’s OVO Arena Wembley on September 19.

Spiritbox will later support Metallica at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Arena on November 21, as part of the metal veterans’ two-night “No Repeat Weekend” at the venue.
