40 Below Summer unveil official video for new single “Darkside”

40 Below Summer is revealing “Darkside,” their second new track in ten years. The group’s upcoming comeback, which will culminate in the publication of their next studio album, includes this song and its predecessor, “King Ghidorah.” The band will perform a 25th anniversary event on October 11 at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey, though the specifics of the release have not yet been finalized. That evening, there will be two sets: a special set from their initial roster and a conventional performance with their current team.

With ‘Darkside‘, 40 Below Summer deliver one of their darkest and most emotionally charged songs to date. Mixing crushing riffs, haunting melodies, and deeply introspective lyrics, the track dives into themes of inner turmoil, mistrust, and the battle against one’s own demons.  The chorus — “So say hello from the darkside, this part of you that you cannot hide” — perfectly captures the song’s raw honesty and intensity.
