The atmospheric metalcore trailblazers have announced the upcoming release of 'Heavener (Definitive)' this Friday, May 31, and dropped their new track "How We Used To Say Goodbye" (via UNFD). The new single, "How We Used To Say Goodbye," is a mesmerizing addition to the already impeccable Heavener LP. Frontman Marcus Vik's uniquely haunting vocals weave a sorrowful story set against a backdrop of sweeping, layered guitars and mellow drum fills. Hits harder on every listen. On the first listen I think I wanted more angry Marcus, but as I went on, it was cutting me deep.This melodically enchanting track is bound to captivate audiences.

When asked about 'Heavener (Definitive)', guitarist Keaton Goldwire shared:

“Finishing out 'Heavener' was a really special moment for us. There was such deep self-reflection and proudness that formed into an intense motivation. I don’t think was ever a time where I could say I was inspired by my own band, but this one really sparked something. So we kept writing. The songs we came up with are a true extension of Heavener and give us closure to an era. A new, definitive ending.

'Heavener (Definitive)' includes the original album in its entirety, plus “How We Used To Say Goodbye”, recent singles “Sleepless Deathbed” and “Heavener”, and a re-imagined version of “Without a Whisper.” The band will also be offering a premium version of the album on vinyl with a limited-edition D-Side etching, and an embossed jacket with spot gloss and foil stamping. Truly the definitive version of the critically acclaimed album – 'Heavener'.”
