The rumours are true — Lorna Shore are back in 2025 with new music and a new tour to lay their stake as one of the most impressive extreme metal acts to emerge in recent memory.
After a mysterious billboard appeared on the New Jersey Turnpike in the band’s hometown, Lorna Shore today confirms that their new studio album “I Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me” is set for release on September 12th, 2025, via Century Media Records.
It’s led by the blistering first single “Oblivion” debuting today. See the music video, directed by Dylan Hryciuk of Versa Films, below.
Says vocalist Will Ramos of the track: “Writing this song felt like the culmination of all the things that we’ve done in the past, but brought to the next level; a more evolved version of what Lorna Shore truly is”. He adds: “I imagined a post-apocalyptic world in the (hopefully distant) future. A world where we have sown the seeds of our own destruction. The idea that we wished for better, hoped we were doing something that would help save us in this dying world, only to end up accelerating its inevitable destruction. This brings up the question; what is right? Do we even know what we’re doing? What have we done to try and actually change anything? Are we watering the earth or just feeding a constantly growing fire?”…
With the release of their upcoming fifth album, the first in three years since 2022’s “Pain Remains”, Lorna Shore’s incredible journey continues. They’ve hit the viral Spotify charts, racked up hundreds of millions of streams, embarked on highly successful tours and in the process, galvanised a significant fanbase that hangs onto the band’s quest for stylistic inversion. But by virtue of physical onslaught and wanting to divine truth from their music, Lorna Shore have kept themselves fired up by torching the metal rulebook at every turn, practically demanding that other genres step up their game.
