April 24, 2026 – Boundaries release their new album, Yearning: the unbeautiful after, on July 17 via Sumerian Records. Today’s announcement comes with the release of “Death will follow me” and its official video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Nnw_97fasU). The track follows last month’s single “Skies cast amber black,” which drew praise from Revolver (“awesomely pissed-off”), Knotfest (“unrelenting aggression”), and Consequence (“vicious”). “This time last year was one of significant sorrow for this band and many others,” vocalist Matthew McDougal explains. “The tragic accident that took the lives of our friends so suddenly has since had us in a state of perpetual mourning. The evidence of such and of life’s unforgivable violence is found throughout this newest album. ‘Death will follow me’ merely begins to scratch the surface of this concept, and its grief ripples throughout this entire record.” Recorded in the fall of 2025 with producer Drew Fulk (Knocked Loose, Fit For A King), Yearning: the unbeautiful after captures Boundaries at their most punishing, deliberate, and focused. The 14-track album features guest appearances from The Plot In You’s Landon Tewers (“Crowned and crucified”) and Make Them Suffer (“Torn wide open”). “With the record, we aimed to be uncompromising and really plant our flag,” McDougal shares. “As more time passes, heavy music continues to lose its teeth. This genre is supposed to be threatening; it should have an edge and make you feel something. We tried to create an album with urgency.” He continues: “The title, Yearning, is base level. What do you want from life, relationships, or whatever you spend time on? Time is the only resource with any real value; it’s the only thing you can’t get more of. You should give deep consideration to anything you choose to spend time on. The subtitle, The Unbeautiful After, refers to the eventuality of what you’ve spent your time doing. The main questions are ‘What did you give yourself to? What is important to you? Where did it lead you?’” Album pre-orders (https://sumerian.lnk.to/ytua) and pre-saves are now available, with the collection available on multiple limited-edition vinyl variants, CD, cassette, and digitally. |
