"Plain and simple — the world is fucked," states Blake. "We've all been too complacent to do anything about it. We vote in the richest, oldest, most crooked politicians to run our country into the ground and stand around wondering what happened. Wake up. It's time for a change. We won't stand idly by as everything we know and love turns to ash for a political agenda. We will be standing and fighting 'TOOTH AND NAIL.'"

Saul Announce New Album "THIS IS IT... THE END OF EVERYTHING" + Drop "A MILLION MILES"

SAUL ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM THIS IS IT... THE END OF EVERYTHING

NEW ALBUM ARRIVES ON JULY 28 VIA SPINEFARM

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR "A MILLION MILES"


TOURING WITH MEMPHIS MAY FIRE THIS SUMMER

Iowa hard rock heavyweights SAUL — brothers Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums] — have announced their new albumTHIS IS IT... THE END OF EVERYTHING. The album arrives July 28 via Spinefarm. Pre-order it here.

To herald the album's announcement, the band has shared the video for first single "A MILLION MILES."

"The distance between us is no longer measured in inches, feet, or miles," says Blake about the song. "It's the void in time between looking up from our screens and locked in a dream. A minimal space we keep for reality. Just a moment to see the difference of where we are, and where we want to be.  We can sit across from someone within reach, and be a million miles away transported through our screens." 
 
 The album encompasses a similar theme. Blake shares, "As a whole, we're losing focus. I feel like the only one to look up and notice. Am I losing my mind or losing touch with the times? It's a game we can’t win when the rules always change. Marching toward the end of days. This is it… the end of everything."
 The Iowa quartet continues to bring audiences together with a one-two punch of pummeling metallic grooves and towering melodies. Amassing tens of millions of streams and earning acclaim from RevolverGuitar WorldLoudwire, and many more, the group fortify an unbreakable bond with listeners on their second full-length offering, THIS IS IT…THE END OF EVERYTHING [Spinefarm]. For this record, the band collaborated with producer Kile Odell [Motionless In White, Nita Strauss]
 
"As a society, we're so glued to our phones and social media," notes Blake. "When we finally got out of quarantine, we personally needed to take a mental break from it. If you think about it, we don't even have to talk anymore, since communication happens online. So, step back from social media, get out there, shake hands, and live a little bit. You don't have to exist through your phone. Capture the moment in your head and tell the story out loud to someone."

Saul emerged out of the Midwest in 2017 and tirelessly bulldozed a path to the forefront of modern rock. They notably performed alongside everyone from Motionless In White, Atreyu, August Burns Red, Crown The Empire, Bush, and 10 Years to HELLYEAH and Nonpoint in addition to gracing the stages of festivals, including Rebel Rock, Rock Fest, Rock USA, Inkcarceration, and Blue Ridge Rock Fest with Rob Zombie, Mudvayne, and Slipknot.

Saul Share "Looking to Fight" Video — WATCH — Plus Band Returns to the Road

DEBUT FULL LENGTH RISE AS EQUALS OUT NOW ON SPINEFARM

BAND RETURNS TO THE ROAD

Iowa-based rock quartet SAUL — brothers Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums] — have just shared the video for the new single "Looking to Fight," which spins a tale of internal struggle.

Watch it below

Blake Bedsaul pulls back the curtain on the deeper meaning behind the song, saying, "'Looking to Fight' is a moment of introspection. Ask yourself this: Am I the hero or the villain in any given situation? After a long hard look into how I was dealing with my emotions, I realized that I was the villain of my own story. But don't just apologize. Take responsibility for your actions and own up to them. Make the change to be someone to fight for — not against."

"Looking to Fight" is taken from Saul's debut full-length Rise As Equals, out now on Spinefarm. The album has already garnered 16 million streams and counting since its Fall 2020 release. The band also enjoyed its best-performing active rock radio song to date with "King of Misery."

Loudwire praised the band for crafting "punchy anthems with immediate sing-along choruses." Elsewhere, Cryptic Rock called Rise As Equals "a more than solid debut from a band whose name you need to know." Flying Fiddlesticks labeled it "a stab at the heart of mediocrity that rises above the tide of ordinary heavy music."

Saul show no signs of slowing down. The band will return to the road this summer and they are eager to forge that direct connection with their fans, known as "Equals," live, onstage, and in the flesh again. They will be appearing at various festivals and other shows before hitting the road with Atreyu, Crown the Empire, and more. All dates are below.

Additionally, Saul have teamed up with Fancircles to create a community platform for their beloved army of fans — The Equals. The band is setting a precedent in next-level fan engagement and sees Fancircles as perfect partners to deliver exclusive content, giveaways, live broadcasts, sneak previews of new songs and videos, and much more, in a safe space that is focused entirely on building The Equals community.

"'Looking to Fight' is a song about a time in my life that I didn’t know which step to take. Do I leave music behind or continue with the struggle?," shares Blake. "I was putting my family through a lot of turmoil during my depressed state. Sometimes you just can’t stop the suffering."

“This song is one of the first songs we wrote for Rise As Equals that has a captivating and driving force," says Zach.

NEW ALBUM RISE AS EQUALS ARRIVES ON OCTOBER 23 VIA SPINEFARM RECORDS

Iowa-based rock quartet SAUL — brothers Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums] — have premiered the futuristic and cinematic video for their new single "King of Misery

The song, co-written by Disturbed's David Draiman, is the lead single from the band's debut album Rise As Equals. The record arrives October 23 via Spinefarm Records

"A day on repeat, spiraling out of control, and no option but to embrace it," says Blake. "The shoot for 'King of Misery' was a spectacular sight for these weary, quarantined eyes. Scott Hansen of Digital Thunderdome had a vision that was spot on with the vibe of the song. The location, crew, and actress Catherine Lucchesi were a delight to work with. They really brought the visuals of the song to life."

Zach weighs in, saying, "Imagine the worst day of your life, and then put it on repeat. Director Scott Hansen took the lyrical content of 'King of Misery' to a whole new level. The video opens with an epic space-themed, sci-fi intro that's literally a mini-feature while seamlessly transitioning into an impressive aerial shot of us performing on a plateau in the middle of the Badlands National Park. The beautiful, chaotic landscape leads you to believe that you are actually on another planet."

SAUL ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM RISE AS EQUALS

Image 8-31-20 at 5.17 PM.JPG

ALBUM OUT OCTOBER 23 VIA SPINEFARM RECORDS

BAND SHARES NEW SONG "KING OF MISERY" — LISTEN

Iowa-based rock quartet SAUL — brothers Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums] — have announced their debut album Rise As Equals. The record arrives October 23 via Spinefarm Records. 

The band has shared the new song "King of Misery," which was co-written by Disturbed's David Draiman. Listen here.

"'King of Misery' is a track that we hope all people can relate to at some point in their lives," explains Blake. "It's about being aware that your life is spiraling out of control and warning everyone around you that if they stay, you'll only drag them down with you. We are the rulers of our own domain but there are certain life lessons that you can only learn in the struggle. At that point, we all become the 'King of Misery.'"

Zach offered further insight, saying, "It was a very unique experience being able to write a song with someone as influential as David Draiman. His humble and down-to-earth nature made it such a comfortable experience. It wasn't ideal having writing sessions over ZOOM. But we definitely made it work. We knew we wanted to write a song that once you heard it, it would give you an emotional concussion."

He finishes, "'King of Misery' is a blast into reality that most people don't want to face and spend years running from."

Draiman himself weighed in on working with Saul on the track, stating, "These guys were a pleasure to work with, as they are talented, dedicated, diligent, and already armed with an arsenal of hooks. I was honored to be able to contribute."

Blake also highlights the turbocharged lyrical current that runs through the album. "Rise As Equals" is the full embodiment of all the trials and tribulations we face as a band, fathers, sons, brothers, and humans," he explains. "We write about everything from our biggest fears in songs like 'Looking to Fight' and 'Don't Close Your Eyes,' while the title track is an ode to the wonderful men and women that make up our amazing fan base known as 'The Equals.'"

SAUL RELEASE EMOTIONAL FAN PARTICIPATION VIDEO FOR ACOUSTIC VERSION OF ACCLAIMED HIT SINGLE "BROTHER"

Music video by Saul performing Brother (Acoustic / Memorial Video). © 2020 Universal Music Operations Limited http://vevo.ly/5omY2q

BAND ASKED FANS TO CONTRIBUTE PHOTOS OF LOVED ONES THAT THEY'VE LOST FOR INCLUSION

On-the-rise rock quartet SAUL — brothers Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums]— have dropped the emotionally resonant video for the acoustic version of their acclaimed and incredibly personal hit single "Brother."

Saul reached out to their fans, known as "Equals," and asked them to share photos of loved ones that they have lost to be included in this video. The visual matches the intensely personal nature of the lyrics, which is a poignant lament on life and death. The track tells the story of the Bedsaul's late older brother, who passed away from H1N1 in 2009. The song resonates now more than ever as the world deals with various traumas due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The original version of "Brother" landed at No. 1 on SiriusXM Octane.

Saul previously teamed up with Revolver to premiere the video for "Trial By Fire."

The Iowa-based band is currently working on their upcoming Spinefarm Records full-length debut, due out later this year.
