Spiritbox (ex-Iwrestledabearonce) reveals new video for “Perennial”

Vancouver Island metal trio, Spiritbox have released a music video for their new single titled, “Perennial”. The song follows up on the band’s 2017 self-titled EP, which was warmly received by critics (including us).

““Perennial” was written for our friend that has to spend years in and out of the hospital due to his many severe health battles”, says vocalist Courtney LaPlante. “Our last release really resonated with him and he was there supporting us every step of the way while we developed our music. I am not a very good communicator but I feel like I can express myself better through my songs so I want him to listen to “Perennial” and know that I appreciate how much work he puts in to stay positive, and that it’s ok to acknowledge the agony he has been through.” LaPlante goes on to say, “I hope other people can feel this as well when they hear the song, and interpret it in a way that makes them feel whatever they want, happy or sad, pain is complicated. I just don’t want them to give up.”

To put it kindly, what Spiritbox are doing is nothing short of dynamic, melodic metal that ends up being really captivating. Their self-titled EP from last year was a solid effort, and it appears that may only be the prelude. Stay tuned.
