Left Behind has released a b-side from their latest record, "No One Goes To Heaven", which was released in the fall of 2019 via Pure Noise Records. Fans can listen to “Waiting For The End” and watch the Animal Crossing-inspired music video below!
On the song and video, vocalist Zach Hatfield shares: “It’s about loving playing music and being on tour with my band but missing that feeling when we first started touring eight years ago and everything was new to us. Like some of our very first tours were so loosely booked we’d be hopping on last minute shows because some of them cancelled and we’d just play whatever we could get on. It’s also about missing out on things at home. I’ll be on tour for a month at a time for some of them and while I’m home I’m working most of the time. So I’m not going out as much and there’s tons of old places I used to go to closing down, new places opening up. Also friends and family having kids, getting married".
“I love where we’re at now as a band and I’m very grateful to be doing the tours we’ve been doing. Honestly though, having this break has been great for my mental health. It’s great being able to take a step back and work on other personal goals I’ve been putting back for awhile now. So in less words the song is about missing out. Whether it’s missing the craziness of our older tours or missing out on things in my personal life because I’m gone it doesn’t matter. The feeling stays the same".
Tapping into the darker side of the hardcore/metalcore stratum, Left Behind deliver a sludgy mix of breakdowns and staccato guitar riffage that invokes names likes Harms Way, Crowbar, and Black Breath. The band debuted in 2013 with the EP "Death, Take Me", followed by the release of the full-length Seeing Hell in 2016, and Blessed by the Burn in 2017. In 2018, the and signed to Pure Noise Records, and released their first album on their new label at the end of 2019, "No One Goes To Heaven", and they’ve shown no signs of slowing down.
