]]><![CDATA[Of Virtue Declare War On New Track "The Art Of Love"]]>Fri, 27 Mar 2026 07:00:00 GMThttps://www.soundfurymagazine.com/press-releases/of-virtue-declare-war-on-new-track-the-art-of-loveMichigan metalcore outfit, Of Virtue, have torn open a new would, as they've released their brand new single, "The Art Of Love", via Arising Empire today. Following the explosive reception to their previous single, "Death Of The Altar", today's brand new single arrives as Of Virtue's latest chapter in an already commanding year, building on the world they established on their 2023 record, "OMEN", which has amassed an impressive 65 million streams since its release. Fans can listen to the new single HERE.


Where "Death Of The Altar" turned addiction and self-destruction inward, "The Art Of Love" widens the lens, zeroing in on the quiet, yet deafening, devastation of a connection that consumes more than it gives. Co-written alongside Lee Albrecht (Bilmuri, The Devil Wears Prada, etc) and Evan McKeever (Starset, Koe Wetzel, etc), "The Art Of Love" and "Death Of The Altar" continue the band's ongoing focus on the emotional and relational toll that addiction, mental health, and the stigma surrounding both leave in their wake.


Of Virtue have never shied away from the harder truths, and "The Art Of Love" exposes the way that love can become its own kind of war of attrition, one fought in silences, sacrifices, and the slow erosion of your core.


On reckoning with everything that love can cost you, vocalist and guitarist Damon Tate shares:


"Sometimes you have songs that embody more of the existential problems we have in the world and other times, you just need that blunt force reminder that we all go through a lot of the same things. Toxicity in relationships will exist until the end of time - scorned lovers that are navigating their own character growth while refusing to let go or move on from abusive situations.


Love is one of the most powerful and complex emotions we can experience in our lives. The right person makes you levitate above the clouds and can also make you feel like you're living in a nightmare every day. This song brings our self worth, value and how we accept/show that love to ourselves and others into question."


Harnessing the potent fusion of powerful melodies and emotionally charged lyrics, Of Virtue maintain a steadfast commitment to authenticity, consistently redefining the genre while staying true to their artistic essence. Beloved across 35 countries and having performed at multiple Danny Wimmer festivals, Upheaval, Full Force, Summer Breeze, and Pulp Summer Slam amongst many others, it's no surprise that they've shared stages with bands such as Slipknot, Bad Omens, Nothing More, and Three Days Grace. Beyond their musical prowess, the metal powerhouse also serve as passionate mental health advocates on and off stage. Often seen using their platform to raise awareness and openly discuss these vital issues, Of Virtue have become a source of hope and inspiration for countless fans facing similar challenges.


Carrying forward the spirit of their 2023 record, "Omen", Of Virtue continue to champion vulnerability, community, and the belief that no one is defined solely by their worst decisions. With "Death Of The Altar" and "The Art Of Love" standing as the next chapter, the band further their evolution with a fearless, unflinching look at what it means to reclaim your life, even when it means burning down everything that once felt familiar.


Be sure to stay tuned for more Of Virtue news coming very soon.



ABOUT OF VIRTUE


In the face of omnipresent change, OF VIRTUE has never wavered, forging a legacy that stands as a testament to the power of reinvention and a refusal to surrender. Since the band’s inception, their music – a punishing-yet-melodic mix of hard rock, metal, and alternative – has mirrored that ambition: unexpected and ever-shifting, always rooted in raw emotion. 


That restless spirit is fully realized on “DEATH OF THE ALTAR,” the band’s new single and first release since 2023’s Omen. Built on jackhammer riffs, skittering industrial electronics, and ethereal production, the track surges from claustrophobic tension into a widescreen, soaring chorus showcasing contrasting vocal styles of Tyler Ennis and Damon Tate – equal parts soulful and caustic. The shift lands like the split second before impact, amplifying the song’s central theme: confronting the moment when devotion turns into self-destruction.


The track arrives as the first glimpse of the band’s forthcoming fourth album and follows a period of rapid ascent: 2023’s Omen propelled the Michigan-based act to more than 65M streams, 4M YouTube views, and tours and festival appearances alongside Slipknot, Gojira, Bad Omens, The Used, and Three Days Grace, yet their momentum has always been fueled by more than accolades. Drawing inspiration from their diverse ethnic backgrounds (Chinese, Vietnamese, Mexican, Black, and Irish heritage), Of Virtue finds strength from these distinct perspectives, shaping their chemistry, songwriting and shared sense of purpose.

Armored Saint will release its next album this spring.
The band announced Tuesday through a news release, it will release its new album, Emotion Factory Reset May 22 through Metal Blade Records. The band’s ninth full-length studio recording, it will span 11 songs, which are noted below:
Emotion Factory Reset Track Listing:
01. Close to the Bone
02. Every Man-Any Man
03. Not on Your Life
04. Hit a Moonshot
05. Buckeye
06. Compromise
07. It’s a Buzzkill
08. Throwing Caution to the Wind
09. Ladders and Slides
10. Bottom Feeder
11. Epilogue
In anticipation of the album’s release, the band premiered the record’s lead single, ‘Close to the Bone‘ Tuesday. Front mona John Bush discussed the new single in a prepared statement.
“The first track on the record sounds like vintage ARMORED SAINT,” said Bush. “Yet vintage that comes out in 2026! How did we do that? The title of the record, Emotion Factory Reset appears as the first line of the bridge. Killer riffs, awesome rhythms and attacking vocals gets this train rolling. The title implies the human response to withdraw and keep things to yourself instead of being confrontational; Something I believe we all struggle with as humans. Do you just say, ‘aww, whatever man,’ or do you say, ‘hey, fuck you!’ Depends on the moment I guess.”
Emotion Factory Reset will release on a variety of vinyl pressings noted below. Additionally it will release in Europe on a special vinyl pressing that will include bonus 7″ vinyl ‘One Chain (Don’t Make No Prison)’ as an extra, as well as a download card. The European CD pressing will also include the noted bonus song, which until now has been available only digitally.
The album’s global CD release will include a 20-page booklet.
