FROM ASHES TO NEW — Danny Case (vocals), Matt Brandyberry (vocals), Lance Dowdle (guitar), Maty Madiro (drums), and Jimmy Bennett (guitar) — are proud to release their new album REFLECTIONS, today, April 17 via Better Noise Music.
Today, the Lancaster, PA-based quintet shares the video for Forever. The song weaves contemplative verses with epic and explosive choruses and breakdowns, and it ultimately demonstrates the band’s deftness with dynamics.
“Forever came together at the very end of the record, almost like it was waiting for everything else to fall into place before it could exist,” Brandyberry shares. “There’s a sense of finality to it, like standing in the aftermath of something you can’t fix, realizing too late where it all went wrong. It paints a picture of how it feels when regret won’t let go. We pushed ourselves further than we ever have on this one. We made choices that felt uncomfortable, but that’s what helped shape it into something different for us. The goal wasn’t to play it safe; it was to evolve and create something that sticks with you. Forever doesn’t resolve cleanly…It lingers, and that’s exactly what we wanted.”
As for the album as a whole, the band explains, “It’s not a concept album by design, but there’s a common theme running through it — that feeling of being stuck in a kind of purgatory, where you can almost see something better ahead of you, but there’s always something dragging you back down.”
