IN THIS MOMENT CAST AN UNBREAKABLE SPELL WITH NEW ALBUM WITCH

Perfect timing for the full moon — IN THIS MOMENT have officially unleashed their ninth studio album, WITCH, today, August 28!

The Grammy nominated, multi-platinum rockers' new 11-track album is packed with everything fans love about the band — massive riffs, haunting melodies, Maria Brink's unmistakable vocals and plenty of dark, theatrical energy.

And there are some killer guests along for the ride. Dayseeker join IN THIS MOMENT on the new single "I Want To Believe," while Kim Dracula appears on "Heretic," and Kat Von D joins the band for their cover of Pink Floyd's "Another Brick In The Wall."

The band also dropped a cinematic music video for "I Want To Believe," featuring Dayseeker frontman Rory Rodriguez alongside Maria Brink.

Brink says WITCH is about "embracing the duality within" and turning pain, struggle and persecution into strength and power.

And the timing couldn't be more perfect — the spell has officially been cast on the night of the full moon.

IN THIS MOMENT will take WITCH on the road this fall as part of the TASTE OF CHAOS TOUR, alongside Hollywood Undead, I See Stars, VANA and Melrose Avenue.

The witching hour has arrived.

"I Want To Believe' is the flicker of light you protect as shadows close in. It's reaching for a hand that's slipping away, knowing endings are inevitable, yet still clinging for the glow of hope. It's the quiet fight to believe in light while the world shifts, knowing that even as one chapter fades, another will dawn." - Maria Drink

"We had a chance to tour with IN THIS MOMENT last year and they were so kind to us. I was very excited about the idea of us creating something together musically and I think people are going to love it" - Rory Rodriguez

Dayseeker will release their new album on October 24th titled "Creature In The Black Night", and have dropped the follow-up to Pale Moonlight in the form of a visualizer for that track, which is titled "Bloodlust". 

"'Bloodlust' is one of the more eerie and chaotic tracks on the record. It's about people in your life who want to metaphorically drain the blood from you - those you can't trust and don't belong in your life." - Singer Rory Rodriguez

While not a concept album in the traditional sense, Creature in the Black Night exhibits thematic cohesion, from its shadowy visual identity, Grim Reaper iconography, and ominous atmosphere, to how its songs unfold like chapters. "There's a horror-inspired vibe that took hold early on," Rodriguez explains. "It wasn't planned. But once it started showing up in the songs, we leaned into it."

Fans expecting a sorrowful descent into depression might be surprised — Creature In The Black Night has sharper edges, heavier riffs, and a newfound sense of clarity. "There was this idea that we'd get more and more commercial over time," Rodriguez says. "But I think the opposite happened — we're riffing more, I'm screaming more. And it feels good. It feels honest."

Dayseeker hasn't just evolved. They've ascended.

THE BLITZ PRESENTS -"The Black Mass Tour Featuring" IN THIS MOMENT wsg DAYSEEKER / THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT / DED @ KEMBA LIVE SUNDAY OCT 19 - PART OF THE BLITZ FALL CONCERT SERIES

Formed in 2005, IN THIS MOMENT's current lineup includes Brink, Howorth, bassist Travis Johnson, guitarist Randy Weitzel and drummer Kent Diimmel.

To date, in addition to the gold-selling album "Blood" (2012),the quintet has garnered six gold and platinum singles, followed by a trifecta of Top 25 entries on the Billboard 200 with "Black Widow" (2014) and "Ritual" (2017). With a total stream tally well past 200 million as of 2020, "Ritual" elevated them to new creative and critical peaks as well. Between selling out headline tours coast to coast, the group performed in arenas everywhere alongside DISTURBED and appeared at countless festivals from Lollapalooza to Sonic Temple. Along the way, they assembled their seventh full-length, the aptly titled "Mother" (Roadrunner Records) with longtime trusted collaborator Kevin Churko (OZZY OSBOURNE, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH). Whereas "Ritual" hinted at a bluesy sonic sorcery, "Mother" breathes the activating mantra of an unbreakable spell, commenced on first single "The In-Between".

In 2022, the band released "Blood 1983" (BMG),a reimagined EP commemorating the tenth anniversary of "Blood". Then in 2023, the longtime staples of heavy music released their eighth studio album "Godmode" (BMG),a 10-song record featuring the powerful lead single "The Purge", the band's stunning cover of Björk's "Army Of Me", the collaborative track "Damaged" which features Spencer Charnas of ICE NINE KILLS, and "I Would Die For You", which appears on the soundtrack for "John Wick: Chapter 4".
