Perth metalcore band Cloak & Dagger have just released a new single from their forthcoming Imminence Records debut, Balance. The six-track EP features a re-recorded version of the band’s Stay Gold single, along with the new single, Ruin, which you can listen to below. The EP is expected to be released later this year.
Vocalist Jordan Phoebe says: “Conceptually, Ruin is about the apocalypse. The whole world is being torn apart and ancient monstrosities are being unearthed. Lyrically, there is a pervasive sense of helplessness and resignation to the end. This song is necessary within the structure of the EP to represent the lowest point- the point of giving up- which makes the eventual decision to go on living at the EP’s end all the more powerful.”
