Michigan metalcore band Of Virtue serve their new single “A.N.X.I.E.T.Y.” via Arising Empire.
Produced by Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland (August Burns Red, Polaris, Hollow Front), with additional production by Chris Shifflett, mixed and mastered by Dan Braunstein (known for his work for Spiritbox, Dayseeker, Volumes), this heavy new material hits you straight in the face.
“This song is about being uncomfortable in your own skin and being so far in your own head that you allow outside factors to break you down,” says vocalist Tyler Ennis. “While you may know you need to change, not knowing how, not wanting to ask for help, not allowing yourself to be vulnerable to change — all due to the fear of the unknown, the anxiety — that’s what paralyzes us. This all isn’t talked about enough because of guilt or shame. The last few years have been very difficult for a lot of people, including us, for this reason. So we decided to speak up in case anyone felt the same way.”
