Metalcore Forces RISING INSANE + ACCVSED Release Video for Collaborative Single "Dark"

Building on the massive momentum of their million-streaming hit "Good Enough," RISING INSANE have joined forces with ACCVSED for their explosive new single "DARK." The track offers a standout testament to the band's relentless creative drive and serves as the latest taste of their upcoming album, DEATHRACE, arriving on August 21 via Long Branch Records.

Reflecting on the song's turbulent journey from the cutting room floor to center stage, RISING INSANE share, "'DARK' was actually on the chopping block for the album for a long time before it unexpectedly transformed into a single. When Sven played the instrumental for the first time, some incredible vocal ideas immediately clicked. But as it often goes, initial ideas don't always pan out the way you hope. As a result, the song ended up gathering dust for a while. Yet, that initial spark from the instrumental version never truly faded, which pushed us to give it a second shot — and that definitive rewrite finally brought 'DARK' to life. Being able to bring ACCVSED on board for a feature was an absolute blessing, and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out."

Since their debut, Rising Insane have evolved from a fierce independent quintet into a global heavy-hitter, amassing millions of streams across their previous catalog. Their journey to the top has been defined by elite company, having shared stages with genre icons like Papa Roach, Of Mice & Men, and Stray From the Path, transforming them into an unstoppable live force.

This momentum is now reaching a fever pitch with their upcoming album, DEATHRACE. The record includes the standout track "Good Enough" (Feat. CASKETS), alongside the dark and mature "Error" (Feat. Steven Jones of Bleed From Within). Fans can also look forward to explosive new collaborations on the album David Schneider (The Butcher Sisters), as well.

DEATHRACE marks the band's most radical chapter yet, stripping away polished refinement in favor of raw power and primal riffs. It is a limit-breaking statement that finally pushes their sound to the absolute limit — Rising Insane have never stood still, but now they are finally flooring it.

Reece Young Signs to UNFD + Shares Video For New Single "Dark"

New Jersey-born and raised Reece Young, who emerged and gained traction via his self-released early music, has signed to UNFD!

Young, now Nashville-based, is "one of us" — a music obsessive who has channeled his passion for the scene and his favorite artists into making his own and getting onto the stage himself. With a modus operandi of sharing tales of facing adversity, overcoming personal struggles, by tying open-vein vulnerability and authenticity to gargantuan choruses, the time is now for Reece Young to set about joining the big leagues and emulating what his heroes have done before him.

Speaking of his debut UNFD single "DARK," Young shares, "My goal with my music has always been to help listeners with whatever they are going through. When I was at my absolute lowest, relating to the lyrics in music was all i had in my corner supporting me. It truly saved my life, and I want to try and aid as many lives as I can with my own words."

"'DARK' is about the fear of death," he adds. "The chorus begs the question: What if we died out tomorrow? How would we be remembered? Will I have lived a fulfilling life? It's all too much to think about at once, at least for me. The goal with this track (and project to follow) was to make my mark on the scene I've admired from a far since before I even thought about making music myself."
