Counterparts announce new album, share first single ‘Wings of Nightmares’

Counterparts have officially announced their sixth full-length album, ‘Nothing Left To Love.’ Life’s revolving door is front and center on the record, due out November 1st on Pure Noise Records. Bookended by the powerful lyric “Will you love me when there’s nothing left to love?” – a desperate plea on commitment in the face of both mortality and morality – the album muses on many of the topics vocalist Brendan Murphy has in the past: life’s darkness, self-destructive tendencies and the self-flagellation they beget

​“I know I’ve said this for every record we’ve ever released but… ‘Nothing Left to Love’ is the best Counterparts record. I wouldn’t hold your breath for anything groundbreaking, but as we grow and progress we just get better at writing Counterparts songs, and that’s all we’ve wanted to do. If you fuck with the band you’ll probably love it, and if you don’t then maybe we’ve finally honed our craft enough for you to give a shit.” shares Murphy on the forthcoming record.

The first look at the forthcoming record came earlier today when the band dropped the music video for ‘Wings of Nightmares,‘ which, according to Murphy “is a no-brainer first single because it’s a perfect blend of old and new Counterparts. Sounds like if we tried to rewrite a song off Prophets in our late 20s. It’s one of the most “Counterparts” songs on the record if that makes sense. I think it’s got something for everyone.”
