Platinum-selling Scranton, Pennsylvania powerhouse MOTIONLESS IN WHITE will release a new album, "Decades", on July 17 via Roadrunner Records.
Today, the band shares the new song "R.I.P.", featuring a guest appearance by five-time Grammy-nominated artist Skylar Grey.
The accompanying music video was directed by Jensen Noen.
"The new track evokes the power of a lover's lament inscribed on a headstone, with piano twinkles through the haze of funereal synths and dual male-female vocals entwining on an epic chorus boosted by soaring harmonies.
MOTIONLESS IN WHITE singer Chris Motionless praises Skylar's guest spot: "Skylar's voice brought it to another level that I never could have achieved on my own." The song's lyrics explore the deafening silence after hurtful words, and Chris shares: "We were never afraid to take risks.
This band has lasted two decades, but we've also outlasted all obstacles.
We're still grinding...
It's always been this grand, dramatic, and theatrical entity." MOTIONLESS IN WHITE recorded "Decades" with co-producers Drew Fulk and Justin "JD" deBlieck in upstate New York and Los Angeles, incorporating their past, present, and future sounds into one cohesive sound.
The album includes several high-profile guest appearances, including DARK DIVINE's Anthony Martinez and SLIPKNOT frontman Corey Taylor.
The band will embark on a headlining tour, "The Sweat And Blood Tour", starting July 14 in Bridgeport, Connecticut, with support from LORNA SHORE, FIT FOR A KING, and STATIC DRESS.
