FROM ASHES TO NEW [Danny Case (vocals), Matt Brandyberry (vocals), Lance Dowdle (guitar), Maty Madiro (drums), and Jimmy Bennett (guitar)] close out 2025 with the release of their hard-hitting new track “Drag Me,” out today (December 5) via Better Noise Music. Listen to the single now and check out the accompanying visualizer.
Drag me to hell
The darkest part of me comes out
Cause I can’t run from what is
Hiding in the darkness
Eating up my heart
It pulls me down
Drag me
– “Drag Me”

“We wanted to create a song about feeling trapped in a war with yourself, when your inner demons pull harder than your better intentions can push,” shares vocalist Matt Brandyberry. “Every good thought gets buried beneath the bad and you start to realize the real fight isn’t against the world, it’s against the reflection staring back at you. ‘Drag Me’ came from that place…the feeling of being pulled straight into hell by the parts of yourself you could never escape.”
“Drag Me” arrives as the blistering follow-up to “New Disease,” released July 25 on Better Noise Music, and continues the momentum sparked by “Live Before I’m Dead (Hours),” one of six bonus tracks featured on the June 2024 BLACKOUT (DELUXE) edition.

The band continues to cement their status as a dominant force in modern rock. Their 2023 #1-charting album BLACKOUT captured the tension and turmoil of the pandemic era…written at the height of 2020’s chaos…while reframing their influences into a bold, sharpened new sound that propelled them further into the spotlight.
Fans won’t have to wait long for more: a massive tour announcement is coming soon!
