Nashville quintet idle threat — Ernie Fabian [guitar, vocals], Zeke McKinney [bass, vocals], Justin Jones [drums], Nathan Moe [guitar], and Dylan Winstead [guitar] — have announced their new album you'll forget the sun, out May 8 via Tooth & Nail. The band has shared the video for the first single 'evermind.' The song attempts to express the shock and grief that accompany losing a loved one far too young, asking deep questions that aren’t always met with answers on this earth. The album features guest appearances from Haste the Day's Stephen Keech and Silent Planet's Garrett Russell on separate tracks, among others. idle threat aim to dim the darkness and let the light in through the emotional and hopeful lyrics found in each song they meticulously craft. The Nashville rock band not only gives you the space to scream next to them; they also offer up hopeful hooks you can hum along to. Their second full-length album, you'll forget the sun, provides a reminder to keep going no matter what. Fabian reveals that there's a two-part meaning to the title: the days can be so dark that you forget the sun exists, and when stepping into the presence of God, whose glory is so radiant and bright, the sun will pale in comparison. This dichotomy is informed by their faith and experiences, suggesting that all hard things will eventually fade away, leaving only the presence of light. idle threat have uplifted listeners with a combination of cathartic energy and open-hearted honesty since 2016's Grown Tired EP. They deepened their connection with an ardent audience on blurred visions in 2021, highlighted by tracks featuring notable collaborations. Throughout the spring of 2025, they recorded you'll forget the sun in Nashville with Haste The Day frontman Stephen Keech as producer, making significant creative leaps as a collective.
