Listen to Imminence’s bombastic new single The Sword That Never Bends

Imminence are beginning a new chapter with their new single The Sword That Never Bends.

The Swedish symphonic metalcore crew have signed to Sumerian for their theatrical new single, which the band say is a prime indication of the sounds they will explore in the near future.

“We all knew from the start — this was a single,” the band shares. “Everyone who heard it felt the same. The Sword That Never Bends came alive in a way that immediately defined both the sound and the themes of where Imminence is headed next. It introduces a new dimension to our identity and carries a relentless energy that pulls you out from the shadows of The Black.”

They continue, “The writing process can best be summed up in one word: flow. Everything began in our home studio, where each piece fell into place almost effortlessly. It felt unmistakably like Imminence, yet shaped into something new — exactly the kind of song we’ve been striving to create for years.”
