Balance and Composure share final preview of forthcoming LP with title track "with you in spirit"

Throughout the summer, Balance and Composure have been sharing glimpses at their long-awaited and highly-anticipated return to form new record, with you in spirit. Out October 4 and produced by Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip, their first new LP in almost a decade marks a powerful new chapter for the Pennsylvania band; it'll also be released on Yip's label, Memory Music. They'll celebrate with a run of headlining shows next month with support from Kevin Devine & the Goddamn Band and Milly.

Today Balance and Composure share their final preview of the record with its title track, "with you in spirit." Here they offer a sonic blend of atmospheric post-punk and towering rock, channeling both the heavy introspection and melodic tension that have come to define their sound. Like its namesake, vocalist/guitarist Jon Simmons delves into themes of absence and preemptive grief on the track, all against a backdrop of shimmering guitars and thunderous climaxes. It's a vivid exploration of emotional distance and longing, capturing the band's own evolution following their 2019 hiatus.
