Dying Wish is the Portland-based blistering hardcore five-piece whose passionate music fuses New Wave of American Heavy Metal and chaos-driven punk noises. Late last year, they signed to SharpTone Records, and last month, they announced the release of their forthcoming record, Fragments of a Bitter Memory which will be released on October 1, 2021 via their new label home. Pre-orders are available now here.
Today, Dying Wish has released a new single + music video for “Until Mourning Comes” off of the forthcoming record. This follows the release of the album’s title track “Fragments of a Bitter Memory.”
On the new single, lead vocalist Emma Boster shares, “‘Mourning’ is written about a family friend who passed away tragically in a plane crash last year. We were in the studio writing the record when my cousin called me with the news. I spent the rest of the night on the phone with my family in absolute shock over the passing of such a kind, bright, and loving young man.
“My friend’s death happened just a few days after Riley from Power Trip had passed and I had been watching the outpour of heartbreak within the hardcore and metal communities over Riley’s passing.
“I felt really compelled to write a song about the passing of someone gone too soon that leaves such an incredible impact on our lives. It felt like now more than ever it was relatable because of how many people out there had lost a loved one due to the pandemic or the toll it takes on us.”
Fragments of a Bitter Memory is out October 1, 2021 via SharpTone Records. For more information, please visit: https://dyingwishofficial.com/
