BEARTOOTH SHARES NEW SINGLE BULLSHIT

Beartooth have shared their new single Bullshit, the latest track from their forthcoming album Pure Ecstasy, due August 28 via Fearless Records. The song arrives as anticipation continues to build around the band's sixth studio album and follows the previously released tracks Pure Ecstasy and Free.

The forthcoming LP finds frontman Caleb Shomo pushing Beartooth further than ever before across 11 massive tracks that channel both the chaos and clarity of hard-won personal growth. Channeling the visceral intensity that first established Beartooth as a force in heavy music, today’s song serves as one of the album’s most cathartic moments. Shomo says, “Bullshit is a familiar song I’ve written many times.  I wanted to revisit the musical style that was the catalyst of so much healing and discovery in my earlier years of Beartooth. It’s an exercise in letting the truth out about what you’re sick of in your own life. Sometimes the easiest way to deal with something is to yell about it as loud as you can. Can confirm, it felt as amazing to do this exercise now as I’d did when I was 19.”

For years, Beartooth turned pain into anthems shouted back at the world. Pure Ecstasy captures what happens on the other side of that fight: not perfection or peace, but the possibility of freedom. The album’s acclaimed first two singles offered an early glimpse into that journey. The title track lays everything bare from the first note, setting the tone for an LP built on confronting every high and low without flinching, while Shomo cites Free as “the most honest depiction of my soul I will most likely ever make.”

Beartooth will be supporting Pure Ecstasy with the massive “Pure Ecstasy World Tour” that kicks off September 17 in Europe. The North American leg begins on November 11 in Boston and includes stops at New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom on November 12 and The Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on December 18. Special guests Don Broco, Magnolia Park and Windwaker are the support for all dates.
