May 21 — Nonpoint premiered its latest single and video this week.
The band debuted its new single, ‘Underdog‘ and the song’s video Tuesday. The song is the band’s first new music since the release of its then latest single, ‘A Million Watts‘ and the song’s companion video last July.
The musical arrangement featured in this song is something of a stylistic departure for the band in comparison to its existing works. That is because the arrangement is more melodic than heavy whereas the band’s existing songs balance the two elements far more.
While the song’s musical arrangement clearly takes the band in a less familiar direction than before, the song’s lyrical theme is far more familiar, as front man Elias Soriano made clear in a prepared statement.
“Being the underdog doesn’t mean you’re defeated; it means you have more room to surprise everyone with your resilience and determination,” Soriano said.
The video for Nonpoint’s new single is a familiar style presentation in its own right, too. It features various live footage clips of the band as the new single plays over the visualization. This is an approach that the band has taken previously, along with a number of other bands and acts across the musical universe.
In other news, Nonpoint has also announced a new summer tour alongside Black Stone Cherry. Set to launch July 26 in Sayreville, NJ and to run through July 14 in Lincoln NE, the tour is dubbed “The Kickin’ & Screamin’ Tour.” It includes and is not limited to stops in cities, such as Greensboro, NC; Oklahoma City, OK and Austin, TX. One of the tour’s dates — July 27 in Baltimore, MD is the same day as one of the band’s planned festival shows, that concert being only a matter of hours away in Syracuse, NY.
A United Kingdom tour with Soil, hed (p.e.) and the Union Underground is also set to follow later this fall. That tour’s schedule opens Nov. 5 in Bristol, UK and is set to run through Nov. 16 in Southampton, UK.
All of the band’s upcoming live dates are noted below. Tickets and VIP packages are available.
