Nü-metal/alternative metal veterans Nonpoint have set September 18th as the release date for their eleventh studio album, “The Last Word,” arriving via their own label 361 Degrees Records. The announcement was paired with the premiere of a music video for the record’s lead single, “Is It,” directed by Drew Johnston.

Vocalist Elias Soriano said of it:

“In a world that sometimes wants to put a timestamp on creativity, ‘The Last Word‘ is our way of saying we’re just getting started. We’re pushing back against expectation and pushing forward into our own next chapter.”

He also went on to add the following of the album’s accompanying cover art:

“This album cover tells a piece of our story. After years of making music, we feel more aligned than ever — musically, visually, and creatively. We’re writing some of the strongest material of our career, our live shows are as powerful as they’ve ever been, and the band feels focused and energized. The pencil on the cover represents what it’s like to be handed one last tool and expected to fit everything you have left to say into it. Not because the ideas are gone, but because longevity often comes with assumptions and limits. ‘The Last Word‘ isn’t about accepting an ending. It’s about challenging that narrative. If this is the pencil we’re being handed, we’re going to use it — and make sure the words written with it still matter.”

As for his thoughts on “Is It“, he offered:

“‘Is It‘ is that internal conflict where you question getting too involved? Did I push too hard? Did I ask too much? It’s that feeling of wondering if doing what you thought was right actually meant hurting the people around you.”

01 – “Failing The Conversation“
