Spite House – share latest single taken from upcoming album

Spite House, recently announced their new album, Desertion, due out 12th September 2025 via Pure Noise Records, and today the Montreal punks are back with another taste of the upcoming record, “Stale Change.”

Desertion is an album of visceral post-hardcore that’s sure to inspire stage dives and catharsis in equal measure, as evidenced by its lead single “Desert” (which drew attention from Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, and more) and now “Stale Change” as well. The song explodes with cutting chords reminiscent of ‘90s punk greats like Seaweed, Knapsack, or Dear You-era Jawbreaker, all filtered through a punchy modern lens. Vocalist/guitarist Max Lajoie discussed the song saying, “‘Stale Change’ is a song about the emptiness of superficial transformation and the illusion of progress. The cycle of grief that spins and starts all over again with the learnings of the past that should feel useful while not helping at all and the dichotomy between being brought into the same old negative feelings of guilt and shame while trying to move on and forward at the same time.”
