Bury Tomorrow release new single “Waiting”

Building on a huge tour that has taken Bury Tomorrow to their biggest shows to date in the UK, Europe, USA, Australia and Japan, the band are looking forward to an even bigger 2025. The new single “Waiting” is the fourth taste of the new album “Will You Haunt Me, With That Same Patience”, which will be released on 16.05.2025 via Music For Nations / Sony Music.

Listen to the song here.

Following the release of their first singles “(Let Go“, “What If I Burn” & “Villain Arc“), the band return to appease even the most devoted metal fans with perhaps their heaviest song ever. Frontman Dani Winter-Bates explains the mood behind the track:

Waiting is about rebirth, the sense of going through the fire to emerge from the other side. Lyrically speaking, it delves into the lowest points of our lives where everything feels weirdly centered around yourself and in some way your misery, whether that’s loss, self-loathing, or poor experiences.” He continues to share the sentiment behind releasing perhaps the records heaviest track by saying “Musically waiting is an opportunity to speed things up, make them more visceral more violent. Whilst there have been heavy singles released so far like Villain Arc, this one will feel heavier to many. There’s something slightly more modern about its sound and it’s routed around rhythm and cadence, with a clear aim to hopefully move people as the song progresses.

Following the release, the band is preparing to tour North America for a month as co-headliners with While She Sleeps.

For Bury Tomorrow, the last two years have been about filling the void where they knew something was missing. From the depths of uncertainty, through lineup changes and COVID-inspired obstacles, the arrival of guitarist Ed Hartwell and keyboardist/vocalist Tom Prendergast and the creation of “The Seventh Sun” in 2023 has allowed them to forge a whole new path of possibilities that were previously present. Now, with a strengthened faith and a fresh perspective on what the band can achieve, they present “Will You Haunt Me, With That Same Patience”, their most exciting and emotional release to date.

The result has been made more intimate and complex than ever before by internalizing every aspect of the writing process, with Carl Brown [Sleep Token, Bullet For My Valentine, While She Sleeps] taking on production duties for the first time. It’s a deeply personal, extraordinarily expansive and magnificent display of cathartic craftsmanship.

Born out of a shared sense of frustration stemming from a constant disconnect with the state of modern society, the band have taken an earnest, heartbreaking and critical look at the intersecting effects of brutal self-sabotage, crippling anxiety, fierce despair and the never-ending search for peace and clarity in a world full of noise. It’s a record about separation as much as togetherness, an expression of personal devastation but also a hopeful reminder that we can all cope together.

To haunt is to revisit or recur persistently to the consciousness of someone or something. There’s beauty in that commitment somewhat. In a world full of distraction, discourse, instancy and demand, patience seems hard to attain. In patience there is peace, one thing society is short of. The title serves as a call of reflection, relying on the present moment, remembering what truly matters. I think the notion of patience being haunting is quite a contrast and that’s certainly reflective of the album musically. Kristan Dawson
