Held. have unleashed a brand-new single, KNIFEPOINT, featuring High Vis’ Graham Sayle.

Following March’s CONSTANT TENSION and January’s Frank Iero collab, the trio are offering up yet another killer preview of their forthcoming debut album GREY, which is due out on May 15 via MNRK Heavy.

“This song has a lot of attitude, and that’s a big reason we wanted Graham from High Vis to be a part of it,” shares vocalist Douglas Robinson. “We’re all big fans of Graham and High Vis. When I wrote the pre-chorus, I envisioned this British attitude reminiscent of bands like Bloc Party and Test Icicles, and I wanted it to come from someone who could back the attitude up. Graham is the perfect example of someone who can back up their words with action.”

“I was proper excited to jump on and be a part of it,” enthuses Graham. “I’ve always loved the chaotic side of the post-hardcore spectrum. I love the difference in our accents and how it somehow makes sense.”
