SPEED Premiere New Single & Music Video "PEACE" From Upcoming New EP "ALL MY ANGELS"

Australian hardcore crew SPEED have unveiled their self-described “official movie” for the new single “PEACE.” The track appears on the band’s forthcoming three-song EP, ALL MY ANGELS, which is slated for release on October 23rd via Last Ride and Flatspot Records.

The video—directed by Thomas Elliott in collaboration with the band—can be seen below. Alongside “PEACE,” the EP will also feature “AIN’T MY GAME” and the title track “ALL MY ANGELS.”

A product listing offered the following insight into the inspiration behind these songs:

‘SPEED’s latest project, ALL MY ANGELS, is a three-track EP that reflects on the passing of three close friends [Aje Chang-Wook Yeo, Tahmid Nurullah and Alex Arthur] in recent years. Those events brought intense heartbreak to their community, but over time, they’ve magnified what SPEED have always held as their central ethos: To love unconditionally, without fear or regret.

In the years prior to ALL MY ANGELS, the band wrestled with their collective grief and life on the road. Moments of mourning took place on tour, in cramped vans driving through foreign countries; sandwiched between SPEED performances, on grandiose festival stages in front of 15,000 fans. While the band ticked off accolades and achievements – each more extraordinary than the last – the hurt lingered stubbornly.

On ALL MY ANGELS, that same collective grief has brought the five friends closer together; emboldening them to live life with greater clarity, and providing a more informed perspective on what’s really worth holding onto. Lyrics on the EP address the sobering realities of loss, and include musings on mortality – more vulnerable and raw than ever before. The title track ends with a direct statement of intent; ‘All my angels, I can’t give up.”
