From Ashes To New releases new single ahead of Australian tour

Pennsylvania-based band From Ashes To New has released “Love Me,” the first new track from a deluxe edition of their album Reflections. The deluxe version, scheduled for release on November 13, will add three tracks to the original project. Vocalist Matt Brandyberry described “Love Me” as a song exploring the psychological presence of someone who has vanished, comparing the experience to “watching your own memories turn into a cage.”

The release coincides with the band’s first Australian headline tour this October. Following a successful appearance at the Good Things Festival in 2024, the group will perform shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Brisbane, with Banks Arcade serving as support. Brandyberry noted that the tour came together at the last minute after initial plans for 2025 and 2026 faced uncertainty.

The Reflections project represented a creative reset for the band, moving toward a sound that blends rap-rock with alternative metal and electronic textures. The album's opener, “Drag Me,” previously achieved a number one spot on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart.
