Spiritbox vocalist Courtney LaPlante and guitarist Mike Stringer have teamed up with Los Angeles-based electronic duo SLANDER and producer VASTIVE for the new collaborative single, “Under My Skin.”
The track blends SLANDER’s signature melodic bass sound with Spiritbox’s heavy rock influence, creating a hybrid of dubstep and metal that has already been familiar to many fans. According to SLANDER, the song has been part of their live set for years, having been tested across more than 300 performances during three worldwide tours before finally receiving an official release.
Speaking about the collaboration, SLANDER praised LaPlante and Stringer for their contributions to the song.
“The time has come. ‘Under My Skin’ is finally here. The journey this song has been through is nothing short of an odyssey. We have played this song over the course of 3 worldwide tours at over 300 shows. It truly has been tested and has hit the mark.”
The duo continued by highlighting the impact Spiritbox had on the finished version.
“Getting to work with Spiritbox on this song was such an incredible experience. Their kindness, professionalism, skill, and passion was so refreshing. They gave the song so much intensity and light, bringing it to new heights that were previously unimaginable. Also getting to watch Courtney scream in the studio is something we will never forget. The precision of her vocal performance during recording was astounding. Additionally we gotta big up Mike for adding some amazing riffs and insane guitar lead lines. We are over the moon about how this collaboration turned out and how well our sounds worked together.”
SLANDER also credited VASTIVE for helping shape the track’s aggressive sound.
“Lastly we give flowers to Vastive. He is an untouchable producer whose distinctive sound brought so much aggressive power to the song. We have known him for years, and he is not only one of the hardest working artists in our scene but also one of the nicest people to work with as well. His discography is deep and we encourage everyone to check it out. Under My Skin is out now! More music is on the way soon! We love you!”
LaPlante shared her excitement about finally releasing the song after hearing it evolve over time.
“The song has been stuck in my head ever since hearing the first demo. I’m really excited for the Slander fans to hear the final version, because they’ve been hearing the demo version at Slander shows for a long time now!”
