French heavyweights Resolve have today announced their forthcoming new studio album, “Spread My Ashes Into Space”, set for release on January 15th, 2027, via Arising Empire.
Talking of the forthcoming album, vocalist Anthony Diliberto shares: “In a world where we value appearances over true worth, where aesthetics have replaced the soul, where numbers outweigh substance, where the façade is so often far removed from the truth, I no longer feel like I belong. Spread My Ashes Into Space is a record born from that suffocating feeling. It is a refusal to pretend anymore.
Each song is a new destination, a different perspective, an attempt to make sense of a world that grows heavier on my shoulders with each passing day, in a society that has forgotten what truly matters. When my time comes, I dream that my ashes will be scattered among the stars, where perhaps authenticity and a sense of true peace still remain. There has to be something better out there.
But this record is not just another reflection on the world around us. It is a voyage inward. Some songs unveil my deepest wounds, the scars and traumas that have shaped the way I see life and fueled these reflections. I’m not hiding anymore. Life, in its rawest form, is not all bliss and beauty. It is within this fragile balance between disillusionment and the longing for something beyond that this album finds its truest voice. ‘Spread My Ashes Into Space’ is more than a title, it is a manifest, an exhale, a final hope that, beyond our self-imposed limits, there may still be a place where beauty, love, and poetry remain”.
Alongside the announcement, the band have shared the album’s title track and accompanying music video. Watch it below.
“This first single and title track dive into the moment the breaking point is reached, and how that kickstarts a new perspective”, Anthony Diliberto continues. “The core of this song revolves around one specific question that kept coming up when writing the lyrics: ‘Is it a cure or an escape?’…
I’ve had times when the sheer weight of everything, the noise, the expectations, made me almost consider changing up my whole life and escape to a quieter, more serene place. In this song, space represents this: an ultimate silence and isolation. A place with ‘no rules, no gods, just infinite black unknown’. It’s about the desperate need to find a sanctuary where you can finally be free from the weight of reality, a place where you can just exist however you see fit. This place has been harder and harder to reach for me these past few years, and I think I’m not alone in that.
Some might read the lyrics and see a dark surrender, but I want the audience to see it as written from a place of hope. It’s that feeling of being an ‘escape artist with no hands’, trying to find a way out when you’re completely backed into a corner. Ultimately, it’s a very raw admission that sometimes, the urge to disappear isn’t about wanting to escape the actual world, but simply trying to save yourself from a system that feels too loud”.

Resolve have established themselves as one of modern metal’s most compelling and forward-thinking acts. Hailing from Lyon, France, the quartet have spent the past decade carving out their own space within the heavy music landscape, combining crushing riffs, soaring melodies and an instinct for writing songs that resonate far beyond the genre’s boundaries.
Since emerging in 2017 with their debut single Exposed, Resolve have shared stages with Architects, Every Time I Die, While She Sleeps, Underoath and ERRA, building a reputation for explosive live performances and unrelenting musicianship. As their profile has grown, the band have taken their music further afield, expanding their touring across Europe and into the USA.
Their sophomore album, Human, further cemented that position, with the single Older Days, featuring Paleface Swiss and Ten56, becoming one of the band’s biggest tracks to date. Resolve have now amassed tens of millions of streams worldwide, with their music continuing to reach new audiences across streaming platforms.
Now, Resolve enter a new chapter with their third album, “Spread My Ashes Into Space”, due for release on January 15, 2027 via Arising Empire. The record sees the band pushing their sound further than ever, building on the ambition and emotional intensity that have defined their work so far while opening the door to an even bigger future.
Following the announcement of their forthcoming album, Resolve will tour North America this September alongside ERRA, Vianova and Chamber, including a performance at Louder Than Life Festival in Louisville. After the album’s release in January, the band will return to France for their biggest headline shows to date.
