Melodic Hardcore super-group BE WELL are back to announce a new EP, Hello Sun, out in May on their new label home, Revelation Records. Serving as a follow-up to the band's critically-acclaimed Equal Vision Records debut, The Weight & The Cost (2020,) Hello Sun is full of high-energy, Melodic Hardcore-infused with raw emotion and lyrical depth. Across the six songs housed on said EP, frontman and producer Brian McTernan (Battery, The Movielife, Turnstile, Sesnses Fail)—who owns and operates renown Salad Days Studio—finds emotional catharsis through examination of childhood trauma, depression, and fatherhood while still providing a hopeful light. Today, the band shares the first song on Hello Sun, "Treadless."


Clocking in at just over two-minutes, the fast-paced track showcases the impeccable musicianship of the band, additionally made up of guitarists Mike Schleibaum (Darkest Hour, Mancake) & Peter Tsouras (Fairweather, Olympia,) bassist Aaron Dalbec (BANE, Only Crime,) and drummer Shane Johnson (Fairweather, Nitro Tokyo.) The video for "Treadless," directed by Joseph Pattisall, reflects on the lyrical content of the song, crossing in-between make-believe and reality. Speaking on writing "Treadless," McTernan states: "I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how I ended up this late in life, without ever dealing with issues that have followed me since I was a kid. This song is a reflection on how many things I never said and how different I want my life to be moving forward."


Hello Sun is available for digital and physical pre-order now through Revelation Records. BE WELL has, also, partnered with End Hits Records for a vinyl release of the record in Europe. To support the EP release, the band has an extensive touring schedule coming up this year, including shows with Hot Water Music, Strike Anywhere, Earth Crisis, Snapcase, Strife, New Found Glory, Four Year Strong, BoySetsFire, and Samiam, as well as appearances at Sticks & Stones Fest & BreakFEST 3.
