Hard rock stalwarts SALIVA have unleashed a new single, 'Sadistic Love', out now via Judge & Jury Records alongside the official music video.

The song is a dark, moody affair that channels the early-2000s sound of SALIVA's heyday.

Built around a heavy mid-tempo groove, 'Sadistic Love' builds tension before exploding into an aggressive chorus, pairing Bobby Amaru's signature vocals with an undeniable hook.

Lyrically, the track explores love as both a lifeline and a weapon, capturing the all-too-familiar feeling of being trapped in a toxic relationship.,Amaru comments: "Some relationships become a battlefield.

You fight, you break, you swear it's over, and then somehow you're right back in the middle of it again.

'Sadistic Love' is about being addicted to the very thing that hurts you.

It's about chaos disguised as passion and pain disguised as connection." The song marks SALIVA's fourth new single this year, continuing their momentum toward the release of their forthcoming album, "Breaking Through", slated for August 14.,In related news, SALIVA will be hitting the road this summer after making appearances at leading rock festivals like Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple.

Fans can expect additional announcements in the coming weeks as SALIVA continues to roll out new music and builds toward the release of their album.

The band's history dates back to 1996, with their major-label debut "Every Six Seconds" (2001) going double-platinum and spawning hits like "Always", "Raise Up", and "Rest In Pieces." Since 2011, frontman Bobby Amaru has led the band through a new era with releases including "Rise Up" (2013),"Love, Lies & Therapy" (2016),"10 Lives" (2018),"Every Twenty Years" EP (2021), and "Revelation" (2023).

In 2023, the band suffered the devastating loss of founding guitarist Wayne Swinny, whose legacy continues to shape their music and live shows.

Reflecting on his passing, Amaru shared, "This band meant more to Wayne than music itself, and he wanted us to continue in its current form." Most recently, SALIVA released "Revelation: Retold" (2025) via Judge & Jury Records, a deluxe reimagining of their 2023 album featuring guest vocals, unreleased tracks, and new takes on fan favorites.
