Boundaries have announced that they have signed to Sumerian Records, and shared an absolutely debauched new track to celebrate.

That track is ‘Skies cast amber black’, and finds the band dealing out the pain harder and faster than ever before. Breakdowns that could split tectonic plates, guttural howls of anguish and anger and an atmosphere that feels like the end of all things wrapping itself around you, it is metalcore at its most belligerent and brutal. An unrelenting, unparalleled slice of heaviness that will leave you broken, breathless and begging for more.

All in a day’s work for the band, really.

Vocalist Matthew McDougal had this to say about the song’s themes:

“I have a deep desire in the pit of my making to surround and suffocate the growing plague of people’s self-interest. Given the chance, I’d remove every ego from the music landscape and burn it off for fuel to power blood hungry behemoths whose only goal is to crush and disable. This song is my plea to cleanse a community I adore of people who see it only as an opportunity or a stepping stone.” 

The track is the band’s first release since their 2024 album ‘Death Is Little More’. Here is ‘Easily Erased’ from that very record.

Boundaries will be playing Download Festival this Summer, alongside a set of support slots in the UK and Ireland. Here’s where you can catch them.
