From Ashes To New Drop New Single “Drag Me”

From Ashes To New are back with their new single “Drag Me” out now via Better Noise Music: an adrenaline-fueled dive into the anxiety of personal turmoil and inner conflict. The song follows their release “New Disease” in 2025 and the band’s distinctive mix of heavy, emotionally charged music that speaks to a generation plagued by anxiety and uncertainty. The Lancaster-based band with a #1 charting history and millions of streams worldwide prove they are one to watch as they hint at tour dates.

According to a press release from From Ashes to New’s management, the sonically intense and lyrically harrowing “Drag Me” (out December 5th) is the follow-up to “New Disease,” which was released July 25 via Better Noise Music and marked their first new offering since “Live Before I’m Dead (Hours),” one of the six bonus tracks that appeared on the June 2024 release of the BLACKOUT (DELUXE) album.

Listen to “Drag Me”:

“We wanted to create a song about feeling trapped in a war with yourself, when your inner demons pull harder than your better intentions can push,” says singer Matt Brandyberry. “Every good thought gets buried beneath the bad and you start to realize the real fight isn’t against the world, it’s against the reflection staring back at you. ‘Drag Me’ came from that place…the feeling of being pulled straight into hell by the parts of yourself you could never escape.”

FROM ASHES TO NEW have already made their mark as a hugely successful band with a #1-charting album—2023’s BLACKOUT (Better Noise Music)—which landed the #1 spot on several iTunes and Spotify Rock and Metal charts across the globe. Artistically, the Lancaster, PA outfit have made impact with a distinctive amalgam of alt metal combined with songs that bracingly capture their generation’s anxieties.

BLACKOUT was an important statement for FROM ASHES TO NEW, acting as a prequel to the band’s 2016 debut album DAY ONE. Garnering over 310 million lifetime global total streams including nearly 20 million video streams, the album mirrored the angst and unrest the world felt during the 2020 pandemic, at which time it was written, while delivering a fresh spin on their myriad influences that broke FROM ASHES TO NEW onto the scene. BLACKOUT garnered various critical accolades, including MXDWN which proclaimed that it’s “melodic, emotive and undeniably powerful,” while KNOTFEST raved: “There’s an exciting immediacy to their sound that recalls the music renaissance of the late 90s and early 2000s… It’s that sweet spot of mass appeal where there’s a little something for everyone, be it From Ashes to New’s heavier metallic side, or their arena-sized choruses.”
