Pop-punk powerhouse Action/Adventure has today debuted “Spiral”, the latest single from the band’s forthcoming album Ever After. “Spiral” – a song fueled by being in the grips of anxiety – is out now and streaming here. Watch the music video here. 
On the new single, guitarist Oren Trace shares: “This song is about sitting in a room at 2AM after having a slow day with a looming anxiety that someone close to you has something difficult to tell you, but they’ve been avoiding it. Trying to distract yourself to sleep but never getting fully out of your head. Wondering what Tay Zonday is up to.” The video was directed by vocalist Blake Evaristo, who adds: “The opportunity to direct this music video was one I did not take lightly. After all the stress of planning, shooting, and editing I’m super stoked on how it turned out. I think it captures the anxiety ridden feel of the song while providing a fun visual treat for the eyes just in time for the Halloween spirit. It really was a labor of love between the band, video crew, and all our friends and I think that’ll come through when you watch it.Whether your’re a fan of pop-punk or a lover of spooky movies, this package hits all the right notes just in time for your new autumn anthem.” Ever After, set to be released on 24th October 2025 via Pure Noise Records, marks a bold new chapter for the Chicago-based band, pairing their signature high-energy riffs and soaring hooks with deeper storytelling, unapologetic emotion, and the urgency fans have come to expect. Pre-order the new album here. Action/Adventure will be on tour this October in support of Ever After. The month-long run kicks off on October 23rd, and will see the band hitting cities across the U.S. with support from rising acts Diva Bleach and Not My Weekend.

Formed in 2014, the group – Blake Evaristo (lead vocals), Brompton Jackson (vocals/guitar), Adrian Brown (drums), Manny Avila (bass), and Oren Trace (guitar) -first broke through in 2020 when their debut TikTok video, “Barricades,” went viral, spotlighting the obstacles they faced as an all-BIPOC band within the pop-punk scene. They followed that moment with 2021’s Pulling Focus EP and their 2022 Pure Noise debut, Imposter Syndrome – a record that, despite its title, proved their place as one of the genre’s most vital and distinctive voices. Ever After builds on that foundation. Confident yet self-aware, the album acknowledges the struggles of balancing art with everyday life, and the pressures of following up a breakthrough debut. “This is literally the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my entire life,” admits Jackson. “The industry is so different from what we thought it would be as kids. The theme of this record is the duality of everyday life versus band life, and trying to make them coexist without losing yourself in the process.” With producer Alan Day (Four Year Strong, Knuckle Puck) at the helm, the band pushed themselves creatively, recording at Ghost Hit Studio in Springfield, Massachusetts. The result is 11 songs that chart a journey through doubt, perseverance, and renewal. The record also features a handful of notable collaborations: Dan Lambton (rationale., ex-Real Friends) lends his voice to “Something Isn’t Right Here,” Armor For Sleep’s Ben Jorgensen co-wrote and appears on “Background,” and UK artist Noahfinnce joins the band on “Go Directly to Jail. Do Not Pass Go. Do Not Collect $200,” a track critiquing systemic inequities. Ever After Tracklisting Dayterror
