Dayseeker have just unleashed an absolutely huge new single, Shapeshift.

The track is taken from the band’s forthcoming album Creature In The Black Night – which is due out on October 24 via Spinefarm – and hears vocalist Rory Rodriguez addressing the “anxiety I live with on a daily basis. An open letter to myself about how it shifts and moulds me into a different version of me.”

Speaking to Kerrang! in July about what’s to come from the whole record, Rory teased that, “It’s an eerier sound for our band. It’s still pretty experimental and has pop influences in there, but I also feel like there’s a little more screaming and more metal parts. That’s because it’s less melancholic and sad than Dark Sun.

“This album is more about the personal issues I’ve dealt with, trying to navigate my life as our band becomes a little more successful with time, because people sometimes don’t have the purest intentions when getting close to you and trying to be in your life.”
