GORE. ANNOUNCE IF YOU DO NOT FEAR ME… EP OUT OCTOBER 3
BAND SHARES VISUALIZER FOR NEW SINGLE “WRATH” — WATCH
Texas metal quartet GORE. — vocalist Haley Roughton, guitarist Alex Reyes, bassist Devin Birchfield, and new drummer Wills Weller — are thrilled to announce the October 3 release of their latest EP, titled IF YOU DO NOT FEAR ME… Pre-save it here.
The band has also shared the visualizer for the new single “WRATH.” Watch it here.
“‘Wrath’ is the culmination of resentment, cynicism and fear that was made from the experiences in A Bud That Never Blooms,” the band says. “Between the societal turmoil of ‘Doomsday,’ the death of romance in ‘Babylon,’ and the familial heartbreak in ‘Heaven Is Above Me,’ the human condition can wreak havoc on what was supposed to be stability and peace.”
The new EP follows GORE.’s Spinefarm debut, the A Bud That Never Blooms EP (2024), which saw the band tipped as a “Band You Need To Know” by Revolver and described as “cutting-edge modern metal at its most vulnerable” by NME in their 2025 Essential Emerging Artists list.
IF YOU DO NOT FEAR ME… EP TRACK LISTING:
“Wrath”
“Sepsis”
“Orbiting”
“Like You Meant It”
ABOUT GORE.:
Haley Roughton leads the charge in Gore., a band that brings a distinctly feminine perspective to the heavy music scene. Debuted in 2023 with guitarist Alex Reyes and bassist Devin Birchfield, the Texas-based trio quickly made waves with their emotionally raw and unapologetically vulnerable sound. Their signing to Spinefarm solidifies their place in the industry. Gore.’s A Bud That Never Blooms EP serves as a deeply personal exploration of the complexities of femininity. Tracks like “Babylon” confront the painful realities of womanhood, while “Doomsday” reflects on the desensitization to violence and suffering in today’s world. With plans for more music in 2025, Gore. are poised to continue challenging norms and expressing the full spectrum of feminine experience through their powerful sound.
