Idle Heirs reveal stirring new single/video “Dead Ringer”

With Life Is Violence, Idle Heirs have created a post-metal record that captures a certain vulnerability within its mournful sound. Embracing the idea that art can be an effective way of processing experiences, vocalist Sean Ingram channeled a complex web of grief and existential thought into his lyrics. 

The album's latest single "Dead Ringer" showcases this complexity; it is profound and poignant, and arrives today with a performance video.  Ingram shares, "When I reached an emotional dead end and was prepared to admit all I’ve built was a loss, it allowed me to get past my grief. Get past myself. I decided to step off a ledge here and be prepared for 'Dead Ringer' to be the last thing I write. I wanted it to count for the closest people in my life so that after I’m long gone it would be the save point that they went back to, to remember anything I might have to give by. It’s my love letter to life and how fragile it is when we’re prepared to surrender it so easily."
