Beartooth have released ‘Eyes Closed’, a heavy new song from their forthcoming album, ‘Pure Ecstasy’. The track explores singer Caleb Shomo’s doubts, religious guilt and social pressure, using anger and intense riffs to convey the need to confront rather than suppress those feelings.

Shomo said the song was written with Jordan and stood out from its demo stage, praising its riffs and the experience of performing it. ‘Pure Ecstasy’ is due on 28 August through Fearless Records, and Beartooth will tour the UK and Europe later this year with Silverstein and Kingdom of Giants, including dates in London, Leeds and Glasgow.
