Third single released this year via Seek and Strike, Bloodstock Festival performance announced
UK’s Exist Immortal return with an absolute beast of track, ‘Higher Ground’, which features guest vocals from Megan of Vexed. This new standalone single is one of their heaviest songs to date and the male to female lead vocal dichotomy adds a whole new level of depth to the band’s already dynamic sonic landscape.
Exist Immortal state: “We are thrilled to announce the release of our latest single, ‘Higher Ground’ featuring Megan Targett from Vexed. This powerful anthem is our heaviest offering in many years, so it’s been an amazing catharsis creating this track.
“The song, ‘Higher Ground,’ is a testament to resilience and the relentless pursuit of truth and self-improvement. It delves into the struggles of mental anguish, the search for answers and the determination to rise above adversity. With visceral lyrics and intense musicality, we aim to inspire listeners to elevate themselves and stand strong in the face of chaos.
“This also marks the first time we’ve collaborated with Megan on a track, despite our long-standing friendship and previous work together. Megan‘s contribution adds a unique and dynamic element to the song, amplifying its emotional depth and energy. We couldn’t be more excited to share this collaboration with our fans.”
Targett adds: “It’s crazy to me that I’m only now being featured on an EXIM track. I’ve known these guys a long time and everything they write is so technically impressive, yet still catchy as hell. I’ve loved bringing my style to a song that is so different from what I usually write and I can’t wait for fans to hear the track of the summer.”
Exist Immortal will be performing at this year’s Bloodstock Festival (9th August) on the Sophie Lancaster stage; more dates to be announced soon.
Hailing from the Southeast of England, Exist Immortal combine metalcore and technical metal with pop influences and have spent the last few years touring across the world developing their sound, growing their fanbase and leaving a lasting impact on audiences that witness the powerful live show.
