IN THIS MOMENT UNVEILS NEW SINGLE “HERETIC” FEATURING KIM DRACULA

Brickinfo News Agency – In This Moment, the Los Angeles-based metal band, has released a new single titled “Heretic,” featuring artist Kim Dracula. The track is the first new music from the band’s upcoming ninth studio album, which will also be their first with Better Noise Music.

The new song combines what the band calls “haunting modern soundscapes” with “doomsday metal assault” and vocals from frontwoman Maria Brink. The release date for the full album has not yet been announced.

The song “Heretic” includes stark lyrics such as “I am not your pain or your remedy/I am not your faith or your vanity.” The collaboration with Kim Dracula marks a new direction for the Grammy-nominated band, which has maintained a loyal fanbase since its formation in 2005. The current lineup includes co-founder and lead guitarist Chris Howorth, bassist Travis Johnson, guitarist Randy Weitzel, and drummer Kent Diimmel.

In a combined statement, the members of In This Moment expressed their enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “We are so excited to unveil our new song ‘Heretic,’ featuring the incomparable Kim Dracula. From the first time we heard that incredible voice, we knew we wanted to collaborate. We cannot wait for the world to hear what happens when we join forces on a song like ‘Heretic.’”

Over their career, In This Moment has achieved several milestones. Their 2012 album, Blood, has been certified Gold, and the band has earned six Gold and Platinum singles. They have had three albums—Black Widow (2014), Ritual (2017), and Mother (2020)—reach the Top 25 on the Billboard 200. Their 2020 single “The In-Between” from the album Mother received a Grammy nomination for “Best Metal Performance.” The band has performed on major tours with acts like Disturbed and appeared at festivals such as Lollapalooza and Sonic Temple.

Their recent work includes the 2022 EP Blood 1983, which marked the ten-year anniversary of their album Blood, and the 2023 studio album GODMODE. That album featured the singles “The Purge” and “Damaged” (featuring Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills), as well as a cover of Björk’s “Army of Me.”
