Small towns across America are home to countless untold stories, and Greenville, South Carolina is no exception. This city may be small, but it’s big on spirit. YOUR SPIRIT DIES, hailing from this very place, channels that humble yet fierce energy, embodying an underdog work ethic and an unstoppable fire.

The band’s MNRK Heavy debut, My Gnawing Pains Will Never Rest, released last Spring, not only leaned into influences as diverse as At The Gates, Killswitch Engage, Napalm Death, and Godflesh, but they also culled inspiration from giallo horror classics a la The Beyond. Wrote Decibel Magazine, “…My Gnawing Pains Will Never Rest hearkens back to the heyday of Jasta-hosted Headbangers Ball. More specifically, they embody the precise moment of transition between Myspace and Facebook as cutting-edge music promotion tools. In an ocean of Knocked Looses and Code Oranges, YOUR SPIRIT DIES’ earnest love letter to the Ozzfest second stage milieu in pleasant and refreshing…The band’s great strength is in their ability to replicate the full spectrum of that genre’s various tropes and – this is the hard part! – arrange and deploy those tropes to maximum effect.” Added New Transcendence, “With the pure intensity and stunning instrumental dynamism, it should come as no surprise that YOUR SPIRIT DIES hosts a strong and powerful vocal element as well. With harsh, belted screams capable of both piercing yells and blistering low bellows, the vocals throughout My Gnawing Pains Will Never Rest are exactly what they need to be. Sincere at times, scalding and primal at others…an outstanding release…”

“With this new material, we’ve settled into what we’ve sought for several years,” notes Byars. “The intention of YOUR SPIRIT DIES was never to be simply pastiche, but to take the influences that shaped us early on and view them through a modern lens and I think we’ve succeeded. It’s heavy, dark, melodic, and everything that YSD should be.

“Working with producer Randy Leboeuf [Boundaries, Dying Wish, Chamber, Orthodox, The Acacia Strain, etc.] on this project was awesome,” he continues, “We went with a decent amount of demo material to pick and choose from and only really used two or three parts. A lot of the writing came really naturally, and we had these songs in their final forms in a matter of a couple of days.”

It Is Well… is a taste of what’s next to come in the forever compelling YOUR SPIRIT DIES trajectory.
