GREYHAVEN — Brent Mills [vocals], Nick Spencer [guitar], Johnny Muench [bass], and Ethan Spray [drums] — have signed to Solid State Records.

The band will release the Stereo Grief EP on April 12. Pre-order it here.

Today, the band is sharing the video for the single "The Welcome Party." Watch it below.

It's a rager with lots of forward-thinking, noodly riffs, and sonic twists and turns that will leave your head spinning in the best possible way.

"It's a classic Greyhaven song, but I think we've figured out what that means and how to do that the best way possible, while still exploring new things," says Mills about "The Welcome Party." He continues, "This is the first time I've tried to tackle a central concept throughout a release. This song, and the EP as a whole, really deal with framing life and death...If these songs can build a house, this is the first knock at the front door."

Further expanding on the EP, which takes inspiration from the classic short story And He Built A Crooked House by Robert A. Heinlein, Mills states,"The EP is a loose story of someone navigating existential fear relating to all life and all death on a grand scale through a multi-dimensional lens. I was inspired by a short story I read while we were tracking that sort of serves as a backdrop for what's going on in the lyrics. Overall, I feel like this is the best material we've written so far and it's only hinting at where we're going. We couldn't be more excited to release it with a new team behind us."

He continues, "On the EP, this character is traveling through a house where he watches all of these versions of himself. He experiences good and bad moments as well as regret. I struggle with a lot of anxiety and depression. I'm always thinking, 'I wish I could've done that differently.' By looking through the lens of a person who has access to every variation of life, the project is a way to process a really depressive episode. It leads to acceptance though."

Greyhaven have magnified the scope of heavy music since emerging in 2013. The group transfixed audiences with Empty Black [2018] and This Bright and Beautiful World [2022], gathering streams in the tens of millions. Beyond praise from Revolver, KERRANG!, and more, New Noise Magazine professed, "Greyhaven have proven themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the post-hardcore and the heavy music scene at large with their latest release," and Blabbermouth applauded how "musicianship and eloquence are apparent." Throughout 2023, they assembled what would become Stereo Grief with producer Will Putney [Body Count, Norma Jean, Every Time I Die].

Greyhaven are also embarking on a North American tour this spring with Better Lovers. All dates are below.
