The Word Alive premiered a new song, titled “Never Forget,” from their new album, Real, via Revolver. The song was written as a tribute to the late Suicide Silence vocalist, Mitch Lucker.
Vocalist Telle Smith had the following to say about the song:
“‘Never Forget’ is the song I took the longest to write for Real. I wanted it to be a song that memorialized our friend Mitch Lucker who passed away, but would also uplift and support the remaining members of Suicide Silence. I felt the song musically drew me in perfectly, which is why I wrote the lyrics for this particular track. It was dark and sad, but somehow upbeat at the same time. I also wanted it to be a song where anyone who had lost someone that meant the world to them or someone they know could relate to. Unfortunately, loss is a part of life and coping might not be easy, but there are so many of us to support one another. This song hopefully will bring peace to some, and a feeling of unity for others. Above all, I hope Mitch is headbanging to it wherever he is.”
Real will be out June 10 via Fearless Records.
