Southern California metalcore giants Bleeding Through are back! After much anticipation, the band has announced their long-awaited, ninth studio album, “Nine”, will be released on February 14th, 2024, via SharpTone Records.
Following the release of eviscerating singles, “Our Brand is Chaos” and “Dead But So Alive”, Bleeding Through emerges six years after the release of “Love Will Kill All”, for one of the most vicious and unrelenting records of their celebrated career, “Nine”.
Commenting on the impending record, vocalist Brandan Schieppati says:
“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”.
Today, the band reveals the album’s next merciless single, “Path of Our Disease”, which is accompanied by the music video below.
Adding about the new single, Schieppati says:
“‘Path οf Our Disease’ is a song about the disgusting social climate of the world. We are becoming a species that is never satisfied. We think the grass is always greener and are forgetting what loyalty is. We are being led be liars and fakes down a path of disappointment. It’s time to break free”.

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, “NIine” [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.
