Spirit Adrift Release “Eternal Celestial Energy” Amid Personal Struggles

Doom metal act Spirit Adrift have unveiled a new standalone single, “Eternal Celestial Energy”, via Revolver. Frontman Nate Garrett described the track as:

“I can’t speak too much on this song, other than to say it’s probably the heaviest thing I’ve ever written, both sonically and emotionally. It was extremely difficult to make, but hopefully it will resonate with people who need some catharsis.”

This release comes amid ongoing personal challenges for Garrett and his family. In July of 2025, Garrett revealed that his wife, Nicole, was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer. As of March 9th, a recent update on her GoFundMe campaign confirmed a significant setback: planned HIPEC treatment was denied coverage by their insurance provider, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association.

Garrett shared the following statement regarding the situation:

“Hello everyone,

2 weeks before Nicole was scheduled to receive cutting-edge HIPEC treatment (description at the bottom of this update), Blue Cross – Blue Shield has denied the treatment.

Because of Blue Cross Blue Shield’s denial of this coverage, the plan moving forward has been drastically altered. Nicole will now receive 6 more rounds of chemotherapy directly into her peritoneal cavity. This means she/we will have to travel to Houston and back every 2 weeks starting March 23.

Nicole’s situation is a perfect example of how broken and corrupt the systems are, in a country that’s supposed to be considered first-world. We all already knew it, but this is absolute proof of the predatory, frankly evil practices of insurance companies. Nicole works for one of the largest corporations in the country, and her job is at the corporate level. And still her insurance denied potential life-saving treatment. It’s a tragedy that something like GoFundMe even has to exist, but without it, many average working-class Americans like us would be doomed.

Thank you all for the continued support as we are abandoned and abused by the institutions that are supposed to protect us.

Much love,

-Nate and Nicole

HIPEC Description:
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a two-step, highly concentrated cancer treatment combining surgical tumor removal (cytoreduction) with a heated chemotherapy “wash” (approx. 106°F–109°F) delivered directly into the abdominal cavity. It treats advanced cancers of the appendix, colon, ovary, and peritoneum by destroying remaining microscopic cells, often improving survival rates and reducing systemic side effects.
