HEAVY//HITTER have just announced a new EP, the aptly-titled Coming To Terms.

Arriving on October 10 via Blue Grape, the five-track release is about “coming to terms with who you are, who you’re going to be, and who you used to be,” according to vocalist Austin Hayes. “There’s always hope, which is the overall theme. No matter what’s happening in your life, things will improve.

“A year from now, you’re going to look back and realise how far you’ve come. Two years from now, it will be even more different. For as brutal as it is, we didn’t want to write about life being shitty; we wanted to write about life being shitty but getting better.”

To coincide with the news, HEAVY//HITTER have unleashed the EP’s title-track, which features Sweet Pill’s Zayna Youssef.

“You’ve defeated the demons you had in your closet, and you’ve survived backstabbing, bad relationships, and all of life’s troubles,” says Austin. “You’re older now, and you come out on the other side much stronger as a better person. You’re confident and can face whatever is coming at you. Zayna added another dynamic, which is pretty powerful.”
