The Sheffield based metal-core band While She Sleeps released their latest single on the 7th of February, titled ‘You Are All You Need’. The single is confirmed to feature on the band’s upcoming fifth album ‘Sleeps Society’, which is due to release in April 2021.
The single ‘You Are All You Need’ is the band’s second track to have been released from their upcoming album, and the track talks about wanting and seeking validation from the people around. Sean Long, guitarist for the band, in a press release, said of the song, “We somehow managed to inject enough personal inspiration from each member for it to completely embody “the Sleeps sound” with ease. We are always trying to express a certain kind of emotion or internal insight and sometimes you really hit the nail on the head, expressing it how you imagined, and other times you miss it completely. Well, this time we hit it dead on with no room for speculation. The song says it how it is and reminds us to stop looking outwards for approval & validation.” Listen to the down below:
Long added that a video music is set to be released for the song and that the visuals for it are going to embed colour explosions from the beginning to the end, symbolising “the current state of tis dull, bleak world”. Long further said that the music video will have the colour “everyone needs to illuminate their spirits, even if it’s only for three minutes.”
The band’s upcoming album ‘Sleeps Society’ is set to release on the 16th of April and is confirmed to have guest appearances from Sum 41’s Deryck Whibley and Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil. The band have also been confirmed as part of the line-up for 2021′ s Slam Dunk Festival, which commences on the 29th of May. You can find more information about the festival here.
