INRETROSPECT Ignite a New Era With Shattering New Single ‘Toxic’

UK breakout force INRETROSPECT return with ferocity and purpose as they unveil their powerful new single ‘Toxic’, arriving on 28th November 2025. The release follows a whirlwind year for the band — from electrifying crowds alongside Skindred, Dead Pony, Tropic Gold, and Polar to delivering a career-defining performance at Download Festival before 10,000 fans. With support already pouring in from BBC Radio 1, Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, Rock Sound, Idobi Howl, and Revolver, as well as major streaming platforms, INRETROSPECT stand poised atop a surge of momentum that shows no signs of slowing.

‘Toxic’ marks the beginning of a bold new chapter, pushing the band’s modern heavy sound deeper into emotional and thematic territory. Musically, the track surges with sharp dynamics, crushing riffs, and anthemic urgency — all wrapped in the intensity that has made their live shows unforgettable. INRETROSPECT channel that energy into a single that confronts hard truths head-on, pairing raw vulnerability with explosive catharsis.

The heart of ‘Toxic’ lies in its subject matter, exploring the corrosive bond between addiction and emotional dependence. As T Money explains: “With ‘TOXIC’ we wanted to delve into a deeper topic, one with impact and relevance. Lyrically Nathan explores the ‘relationship’ that can be birthed from substance abuse. Linking the topic to the similarities of an abusive relationship and how there becomes a level of acceptance and justification for the want and need to continue with the dark place a person can be in, to feel whatever level of love, joy or escape that comes with all types of addiction.” It’s a haunting premise, delivered with unflinching honesty and emotional weight.

With ‘Toxic,’ INRETROSPECT sharpen their identity while elevating their ambition, proving yet again why they are one of the UK’s most exciting rising heavy acts. The single is a stark, resonant statement — fearless in message, refined in execution, and fully primed to leave an impact. A new chapter begins, and INRETROSPECT are stepping into it louder, heavier, and more unstoppable than ever.
