Spiritbox Release New Single "Mourning"

Spiritbox return today with their new single “Mourning,” out now via Pale Chord / Rise Records. The deeply affecting track marks the band’s first new music since their acclaimed sophomore album, Tsunami Sea, and offers the first glimpse into what comes next for Spiritbox.

Courtney LaPlante’s impassioned clean vocals cascade over the atmospheric production on “Mourning”, moving through delicate, restrained passages that gradually swell into heavier textures. Her performance remains at the center throughout, with layers of guitar, percussion and ambience building and receding around her as the track unfolds. It’s a more subdued side of Spiritbox, but one that still makes room for the heaviness and dynamic contrast at the core of the band’s sound.

Arriving alongside the single is a beautiful official music video co-directed by Alex Bemis and Spiritbox guitarist Mike Stringer. The visual signals a distinct evolution from the stark black-and-white aesthetic that defined the Tsunami Sea era, bringing the band into a vivid natural world. Performance-driven scenes place Spiritbox against a series of striking outdoor landscapes, including an ethereal, otherworldly honeycomb-like structure, while the recurring presence of a mysterious hooded figure adds an ominous undercurrent to the imagery.
