Hear Beartooth's Seething, Hard-Hitting New Song "Manipulation"

Ohio post-hardcore rockers rage against people who "take advantage of your kindness" on 'Disease' single

Midwestern rockers Beartooth are back with "Manipulation," the tight, pummeling third single from their upcoming September 28th release Disease. While vocalist Caleb Shomo has moved far past his days in metalcore outfit Attack Attack!, his slickly aggressive vocal approach gives Beartooth a radio-ready sound that still manages to hit hard.

Catchiness aside, the track is nestled inside an album that explores dark themes like depression and emotional abuse, as does the single itself. "'Manipulation' is about that person in everyone's life that takes advantage of your kindness," Shomo says of the song. "It's about standing up for what you've done and not letting people destroy your accomplishments." Ear-worm riffs and lyrical hooks abound, but the narrative created is one of seething resentment and the mental health issues it can bring about in toxic situations.

Pre-orders are available now on the band's official website and come with instant downloads of the already-released tracks. See a full list of the band's live dates below.
