The band returns with crushing new single, Back To Me.

Following the overwhelming response to previous track Unbreakable, and fan demand for more new music, OF MICE & MEN have surprise-released their hard-hitting new tune, Back To Me. Both songs are first new releases since the departure of vocalist Austin Carlile, whose ongoing battle with Marfan syndrome forced him to leave the band at the end of last year.

The video for Back To Me chronicles the band’s past few weeks, performing at Las Rageous, Fort Rock Festival, Welcome To Rockville, Carolina Rebellion, Northern Invasion and most recently, Rock on the Range.

Vocalist/bassist Aaron Pauley explains:

‘Back To Me’ is a very meaningful song for us. When going through major life changes, whether it’s loss or growth, it’s incredibly easy to feel like you’ve lost a part of yourself—and like you’ll never be yourself again. I’ve come believe that we can never truly lose ourselves. I believe we persist through these changes, and that if you can discover, tap into, and ignite your true passions, you’ll always be able light the way back to you. We really wanted to put out ‘Back To Me’ as the follow up to ‘Unbreakable,’ because we wanted to reassure and encourage ourselves and others to press on when times get tough. ‘Let hope be everything that you need…’

OF MICE & MEN will be making their UK comeback by playing Download Festival 9th-11th June at Donnington Park.
