Along with the announcement, they released a raw, performance-driven video for the new track “Forever/Always.” Channeling the spirit of mid-2000s alternative and metal visuals, it blends nostalgic, high-contrast imagery with a modern edge. Set in an early spring forest, the band’s stripped-down performance evokes a haunting, memory-soaked atmosphere.
“Forever/Always to me is a thank you to the person or the people in your life that are there for you in good and in challenging moments,” shares Kellin Quinn. “I’m thankful for the people I love, for my friendships, for the people that keep me grounded, for the people that lift me up. My hope is that this song brings you and your friends closer together.”
Kellin describes An Ending in Itself as both a culmination and a continuation, completing the recent emotional and thematic arc of How It Feels to Be Lost and Complete Collapse while reconnecting with the spirit that first propelled the band forward.
Their first single off the record, “An Ending In Itself,” came out last month and unfolds as a meditation on navigating hardships. Quinn shared that it is a love letter to anyone in the midst of struggle and it received praise from Rock Sound, Kerrang!, Alternative Press, and Dork.

Driven by angst and gigantic melodies, this new album marks the first to be released with Rise Records since Feel, which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. Earlier Rise releases include With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear and the gold-certified Let’s Cheers to This, which produced the platinum single “If You Can’t Hang.”
After fifteen years, seven studio albums, one EP, one live album and thousands of shows, the band has built an undeniable connection with their audience consistently drawing devoted fans and delivering electrifying performances that showcase their distinctly unique path through modern alternative rock. They helped to define the early to mid-aughts Warped Tour era and are now experiencing a renewed surge with younger audiences discovering their catalog.
The band, Kellin Quinn [vocals], Nick Martin [guitar], Justin Hills [bass], Matty Best [drums], and newest addition Tony Pizzuti [guitar], continues to hone its signature sound while boldly exploring new creative frontiers. That future-forward perspective, coupled with a deep connection to their listeners, has established Sleeping With Sirens as a household name that’s more relevant than ever.
