Oh boy, you guys, the wait is finally over! MISERY INDEX has released a new single, “Feral Future”, and I’m not even being sarcastic when I say it’s been four whole years since we last heard from these Baltimore death metal veterans 🤯. I mean, what have they been doing all this time? Probably just chillin’, playing video games, and eating Cheetos, because, you know, that’s what metalheads do best 😂. But seriously, “Feral Future” is here, and it’s accompanied by an official lyric video, because who needs music videos when you can just have a bunch of words on a screen, right? 🤷♂️
The song itself is a high-intensity combination of death metal and grindcore, because, of course, it is. I mean, it’s not like they’re going to start playing pop music or something (although, that would be kinda funny 🤣). The driving, headbanging groove from guitarists Mark Kloeppel and Darin Morris, alongside Adam Jarvis’s relentless drumming, is sure to get you moving… or at least, it would if you weren’t stuck in front of a computer screen all day 🤖. Lyrically, the track keeps the band’s social commentary razor-sharp, because, you know, metal music is all about being deep and meaningful 🤓.
About the Song
MISERY INDEX vocalist and bassist Jason Netherton states: “‘Feral Future’ is about changing the way we think about our relationship with nature. Nature isn’t something we rule over or exist outside of. It’s something we are immersed in everywhere all the time. This song champions the rewilding of damaged and corrupted human spaces and reclaims a more feral connection that respects the sublime wonder of nature.” Wow, deep, dude 🤯. I bet you didn’t see that coming, did you? 🙄. “Feral Future” was one of the very first songs written for MISERY INDEX’s upcoming eighth full-length, and its untamed energy helped shape the album’s thematic core. Because, you know, themes are important in metal music 📚.
But enough about that, let’s talk about the tour 🎉! MISERY INDEX is heading out on their “An Epitaph For Endtimes” European summer tour 2026, because, you know, the world is probably going to end soon, so we might as well have a good time while we can 🤪. The tour starts on July 28 in Helsinki, Finland, and ends on August 15 in Sulingen, Germany. Because, you know, Finland and Germany are like the metal capitals of the world 🇫🇮🇩🇪.
