Rising metaphysical metalcore powerhouse THE PRETTY WILD have unleashed their latest offering, ‘AFTERLIFE (feat. Magnolia Park)‘ and the accompanying visualiser (via Sumerian Records).
The track can be found on the band’s forthcoming debut album “zero.point.genesis”, out 21st November. Other tracks on the LP include previously released bangers ‘PARADOX‘, ‘OMENS‘, ‘Button Eyes‘, ‘living ded‘, and the smash-hit ‘sLeepwALKeR‘ will also be available as a physical bonus track.
The songs so far have amassed over 23 million streams on Spotify alone and 3 million views on YouTube and counting.
Speaking about today’s drop, the band commented:
“‘AFTERLIFE’ circles the idea of star-crossed souls bound by something ancient and unbreakable. Conceptually it’s plucked from the kind of love you find in mythology and old tragedies, where you have this obsessive devotion and destruction. It isn’t perfect, but it’s dark, beautiful, and eternal.” – Jules
“‘AFTERLIFE’ explores the idea that love dynamics are rooted in codependent magnetism and resonance patterns. It asks, what happens when obsession doesn’t end with death, but carries your soul into magnetising eternal dynamics? The result is kinda tragic and romantically glitchy. It’s basically a pop-metal requiem.” – Jyl

After a momentous summer tearing up the stage on the Hell Hath No Fury Tour with In This Moment, Wargasm, and Kat Von D, and making their Welcome To Rockville and Inkcarceration debuts, THE PRETTY WILD are currently spending their Autumn on the road with Set It Off, Fame On Fire and VANA.
The baddiecore duo also recently announced they’d be direct support to Sleep Theory on their upcoming UK and EU tour in February 2026, which includes both bands’ live debut on British soil. The venues have since sold out and been upgraded a total of 3 times since then. Now’s your chance to catch the reality-altering performance as the shows stand at a low-ticket warning.
