I Prevail, known for their sound that blends a wide range of genres on a metalcore foundation, have earned high global acclaim, including a Grammy nomination for their landmark 2019 album Trauma.

Ahead of their album Violent Nature, set for release in September 2025, they unveiled this track.

Its structure—driving forward from a quiet opening into a chorus where emotions explode—is truly breathtaking.

The song conveys a searing resolve: to keep moving forward, baring oneself again and again despite being hurt, even if ruin awaits at the end.

The track that put their name on the global map was the standout single released ahead of their album Electro Glide in Blue in February 1997.

This track, from the acclaimed album The Contino Sessions featuring guest Iggy Pop, reached No.

9 on the UK charts in February 2000.

Iggy Pop’s low, ominous narration feels like listening to the deranged monologue of a serial killer, and together with the violent sonic landscape, it envelops the listener in unfathomable suspense.

Its inclusion in the popular game Gran Turismo 3: A‑Spec helped imprint its shocking sound on rock fans as well.

It’s a perfect choice for those seeking a cinematic, dangerous-feeling musical experience that makes you forget the everyday.

Its distorted bass and pounding breakbeats powerfully embody the “absurdity” suggested by the title.

Blowing logic and convention to smithereens, its overwhelming energy is sure to captivate rock fans as well.

It reached No.

25 on the UK Singles Chart and was featured in a striking scene in the film Sin City, as well as used as a theme for sports programs.

Released in March 2022, the piece is included on the acclaimed album Muna.

Their performance on a TV show at the time also drew attention.

For anyone struggling with their current relationship, this song will surely give you the courage to move forward.
