SoCal metalcore behemoth BLEEDING THROUGH is gearing up for the release of their long-awaited, ninth full length album, NINE, on February 14th via SharpTone Records, and have revealed an explosive new single called I Am Resistance featuring COMEBACK KID vocalist Andrew Neufeld. The band kicks off the new year with an unrelenting onslaught of blistering heavy riffs as they prepare for one of the most brutal releases of 2025.

Commenting on the meaning behind the lyrics, vocalist Brandan Schieppati says: “I Am Resistance is a song about self reflection. It’s the times in your life that you come close to rock bottom and lose yourself. This song is about the battle of self medication and self destructive behaviors that sometimes grip your throat in life. This is a pledge to what you love and what you are truly devoted to.”

With a little more than a month to go before the album is unveiled, the metalcore giants are ready to reclaim their place as genre frontrunners after six long years between records. NINE marks their triumphant return with an unprecedented level of rage as witnessed on cataclysmic tracks like Path of Our Disease, Our Brand Is Chaos and Dead But So Alive.

Schieppati comments on the album: “There’s so much passion and aggression on this album. If you’re a fan of us, you won’t be let down. This is everything we’ve been working towards. This is the culmination of 25 years. This is Bleeding Through in its purest form.”

About BLEEDING THROUGH:

After 25 years, eight albums, and countless gigs, Bleeding Through persist as a tried-and-true outlier in heavy music and culture.

The Southern California stalwarts wield an enigmatic and unmistakable signature sound born at the crossroads of no-holds-barred hardcore, cutthroat thrash, and cinematic black metal. Mastering a drastic push-and-pull, they have always occupied their own elevated realm in the extreme space, exhibiting a rare ability to not only incite a moshpit, but also invite complete immersion. It’s why they’ve endured changing tides and trends and stood strong as a force of nature with consistent critical acclaim and packed shows.

However, the six-piece—Brandan Schieppati [vocals], Derek Youngsma [drums], John Arnold [guitar], Ryan Wombacher [bass], Marta Peterson [keys, vocals], and Brandon Richter [guitar]—assuredly perfect this vision in 2025 on their aptly titled ninth full-length offering, NINE [Sharptone Records].

“We knew we wanted to make a really dark record,” says Brandan. “For as raw as the feeling is, we were also very deliberate in terms of the orchestration. It’s definitely a balance. We put everything into NINE. I remember saying, ‘This needs to be the most true representation of what Bleeding Through is’. I think we achieved that.”

Bleeding Through bulldozed their way out of Orange County just before the turn-of-the-century. Following Dust To Ashes [2001] and Portrait of the Goddess [2002], they delivered a classic in the form of This Is Love, This Is Murderous [2003], which Revolver retrospectively christened it a “quintessential piece of 2000s metal.” They picked up the pace with The Truth, bowing at #1 on the Billboard Top Independent Albums Chart.

The band expanded their catalog with Declaration [2008], Bleeding Through [2010], The Great Fire [2012], and Love Will Kill All [2018]. In a “4-out-of-5 star review” of the latter, Metal Hammer attested, “This is an impressive comeback that’s tight, hungry and wired with the kind of energy younger bands can only sniff at.” Over the years, they notably toured with everyone from Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet For My Valentine, Disturbed, and Machine Head to Darkest Hour, Hatebreed, and Parkway Drive in addition to appearing on both OZZfest and Warped Tour.
