Progressive metalcore head-turners Invent Animate are gearing up for the imminent release of their new album Heavener. Today, they’ve also shared the video for the new single “Without a Whisper.”
The song tackles a deeply personal topic and invites some intense introspection on life, death, and eternity. The visual finds the band performing while once again cloaked in neutral attire and surrounded by florals that represent the ebbs and flows of nature.
Guitarist Keaton Goldwire shares more about the inspiration behind the new single:
“‘Without a Whisper’ is about my grandmother dying, and me having to confront death for the first time.”
He continues: “As someone who’s not religious, it was the first time I had to really ask myself what happens in the after life. The song is me hoping, even though I don’t believe, that she’s in a place like heaven. ‘I know I’ve been there before with you’ is my way of saying I know we’ve been together in happiness, in a state I imagine as heaven before.”
Invent Animate will remain on the road through the spring, as well. They have booked dates with Currents and Like Moths to Flames, as well as with Bad Omens and ERRA. All dates are below.
