Iconic alternative rock band Sleeping With Sirens have officially announced their highly anticipated eighth studio album, An Ending In Itself. Produced by the renowned Will Yip—known for his work with Turnstile, Circa Survive, and Movements—the record is set for release on June 12 via Rise Records. The album promises to be a pivotal moment for the band, serving as both a homecoming to their roots and a bold step forward that balances their classic sound with the nuanced maturity they have developed over recent years.
To celebrate the announcement, the band has unveiled a raw, performance-driven music video for their latest single, “Forever/Always.” The visual, which channels the high-contrast, nostalgic aesthetic of mid-2000s alternative and metal imagery, features the band performing in an early spring forest, creating a haunting and memory-soaked atmosphere.
Reflecting on the track, vocalist Kellin Quinn shared, “Forever/Always to me is a thank you to the person or the people in your life that are there for you in good and in challenging moments. I’m thankful for the people I love, for my friendships, for the people that keep me grounded, for the people that lift me up. My hope is that this song brings you and your friends closer together.”
Quinn describes An Ending In Itself as a culmination of the thematic arc established in their previous works, How It Feels to Be Lost and Complete Collapse, while simultaneously reconnecting with the high-energy spirit that first defined the band. With 12 tracks, the album marks a significant return to Rise Records, the label that oversaw their early career milestones, including the gold-certified Let’s Cheers to This.
The band, currently consisting of Kellin Quinn, Nick Martin, Justin Hills, Matty Best, and newest member Tony Pizzuti, continues to solidify their status as a household name in the modern rock scene. Fans can catch the band on their upcoming spring dates, including performances in Nashville and Raleigh, as well as appearances at major festivals like Welcome to Rockville, Inkcarceration, and the Vans Warped Tour.
