Bay Area bruisers MUGSHOT are back on their warpath with ‘I Will Be Here Forever’, the punishing third single from their upcoming sophomore LP, All The Devils Are Here, out June 20 via Pure Noise Records.
The new track is a slow burning sledgehammer violent, introspective, and bitter as hell. It chews through themes of isolation, sacrifice, and self destruction, echoing the band’s own headspace while crafting the album. “This was one of the most difficult to finish lyrically,” the band admits, “but it came together better because of that.” The pain is right there on the surface, raw, jagged, and completely unapologetic.
Paired with a searing new music video, ‘I Will Be Here Forever’ hits like a personal exorcism:
Produced by Randy Leboeuf (Kublai Kahn, The Acacia Strain, Gideon), All The Devils Are Here is set to be MUGSHOT’s most refined and relentlessly aggressive work to date. It follows 2023’s Cold Will EP and nearly a decade after their cult debut Dull Boy.
This time around, the San Jose four piece Ringo Waterman, Michael Demko, Connor Haines, and Ciro Abraham tapped into something darker and more collaborative. “It’s the most personal and pissed off we’ve ever been,” they say. “Everyone had a hand in shaping it, and having Randy on board felt like adding a fifth member.”
With festival slots lined up at Welcome To Rockville and Louder Than Life, MUGSHOT’s reign of chaos is just getting started.
