Metalcore heavyweights Make Them Suffer return with their brand new single, Black Sheep, out today via Immortal Music Group/SharpTone Records. Produced and mixed by Dan Braunstein (Spiritbox, Holding Absence), Black Sheep is a sleek and searing return to form – it’s brutal, melodic and dark, cut with dreamlike atmospherics and ambient electronics that offer brief moments of clarity. Pummelling, polished and potent, it’s a commanding comeback that proves worth the wait.
Lyrically, Black Sheep is a reflection on isolation, belonging and the realities of life on the road. The song sees the band turn an introspective eye on their own journey, looking back at 17 years spent carving out their place in the industry. Despite the rewards, opportunities and milestones that come with a life in music, the track explores the unspoken loneliness that can accompany life on tour, from feeling disconnected from the world back home to struggling to find a sense of belonging – even within your own surroundings.
