On April 24, 2026- Boundaries released a brutal new single “Death will follow me” and also announced their new album Yearning: the unbeautiful after will be out July 17 via Sumerian Records.
“This time last year was one of significant sorrow for this band and many others. The tragic accident that took the lives of our friends so suddenly has since had us in a state of perpetual mourning. The evidence of such and of life’s unforgivable violence is found throughout this newest album. ‘Death will follow me’ merely begins to scratch the surface of this concept and its grief ripples throughout this entire record.” – Matthew McDougal
“Death will follow me” from start to finish is like being hit with a blunt force right to the cranium and experiencing hallucinations of complete chaos and brutality. Listening to this single was so suffocating and filled with relentless intensity that the listener can feel like everything around them is collapsing.
“With the record, we aimed to be uncompromising and really plant our flag. As more time passes, heavy music continues to lose its teeth. This genre is supposed to be threatening; it should have an edge and make you feel something. We tried to create an album with urgency.”
He continues: “The title, Yearning, is base level. What do you want from life, relationships, or whatever you spend time on? Time is the only resource with any real value; it’s the only thing you can’t get more of. You should deeply consider anything you choose to spend time on. The subtitle, the unbeautiful after, refers to the eventuality of what you’ve spent your time doing. The main questions are ‘What did you give yourself to? What is important to you? Where did it lead you?’” – Matthew McDougal
