Post-hardcore band Sleeping With Sirens has returned to the scene stronger than ever. On March 19th, the band released their latest single, "An Ending In Itself," also marking their return to Rise Records.
This song is Sleeping With Sirens' first track released since 2022. This track has everything for old and new fans alike. The song sets its roots in an aggressive, fast-paced tune that somehow still pairs perfectly with Kellin's vocals.
Generally, Kellin's unique vocals are still innately Kellin. His bright vocals secure listeners before breaking into screams that still feel natural to the song.
The lyrics also share the familiar comfort of past Sleeping With Sirens songs. Whether the theme is romance or mental health, the band's discography always has a way of reminding listeners that they aren't alone. Kellin usually pulls from his own struggles and experiences, adding to the relatability of the music. This track's message of recognizing and overcoming challenges comes at a time when many of us (older fans) are experiencing different obstacles in life. Kellin reminds us that we aren't alone, openly admitting his own struggles and making listeners feel understood. The message is clear through lyrics like:
You make believe// no eyes can see// but I can see through you// So when it all comes falling// and there's nothing you can do// Don't give up, don't give up, don't let it bury you// Don't let it bury you// So when it all comes falling down, don't let it bury you// I get lost every now and then// I understand what you're feeling// it's all in, it's all in your head
Through the song's core message, the band also reminds us that "there's a happy ending, but it'll change with time."
Along with the song's release, the band also released their official music video on YouTube. Sleeping With Sirens has returned to the scene with sounds that are both fresh and nostalgic.
