Held. have unveiled a new single, CONSTANT TENSION.

Following January’s killer Frank Iero collab, the trio – Douglas Robinson (vocals/guitar), Sal Mignano (bass) and Josh Eppard (drums) – are giving listeners another taste of what to expect from their forthcoming debut album GREY, which drops on May 15 via MNRK Heavy.

“CONSTANT TENSION stems from an everlasting battle within myself to embrace who I am via internal reflection,” says Douglas. “It’s all of my strengths fighting against all of my weaknesses. There is a ‘constant tension’, a violent push and pull within my mind every single day. I let myself down so much, to the point where I often feel like I have to somewhat abandon myself and step outside to try and see the bigger picture, but the hurt inside of me pulls me back into my own thoughts. I go completely blank to try and focus, which oddly enough resorts to more tension and more clouded thoughts. It feels like an endless cycle. The lyrics to CONSTANT TENSION mirror all of this.”
