Volumes – share new video for the single ”Bad Habit” ahead of album release

15 years into their career, Volumes have weathered ups, downs, time, trends, and everything else life could throw at them only to come out stronger on the other side. Against all odds, a devout audience has ridden shotgun and grown with them every step of the way, waiting for this moment.

The Los Angeles quartet — Michael Barr [vocals], Raad Soudani [bass], Myke Terry [vocals], and Nick Ursich [drums] —recently announced their fifth album, titled Mirror Touch. It will be released digitally on December 12 via longtime label Fearless Records. The physical album will arrive on February 27 of next year.

Here, Volumes ake a stunning sonic left turn. While the track has the guitar girth and grit that is familiar to loyal Volumes fans, the band leans into its melodic sensibilities and synths, trading its usual heavy dose of screams for fully clean verses and choruses. The result is a gorgeous and unexpected alt metal song that will turn heads  — both new and old.

“‘Bad Habit’ is a song about identifying that habits that are deemed bad for you or unhealthy are sometimes the only thing getting you through life,” shares Barr. “Is there a balance that can be achieved? Typically, no.”

Sidewinder
“Bottom Dollar”
“Bad Habit”
“California”
“Adrenaline”
“Stitch”
S.O.A.P.
