The track is brutal from the outset, with a deliberate half-time riff performed over Violinist Kimberly Hovencamp\u2019s simple yet effective melody giving way to double-time blast beats and crunching riffs from guitarist Daniel Avalle and bassist Margaret Applegate, serving as the perfect bed for vocalist Jordan Hanley\u2019s throat-shredding delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the song, the band said \u201c<em>This single represents a fundamental shift in your music writing.

Consisting of vocalist Jordan Hanley, violinist Kimberly Hovencamp, bassist Margaret Applegate, and guitarist Daniel Avalle, the band strives to create a unique brand of Deathcore by incorporating violin layered in with death metal riffs and brutal breakdowns. With this unique mixture, Grasping At The Shadow is a heavy, eerie, sight to be seen.<\/p>\n<p>Formed in 2011 by Daniel Avalle and Kimberly Hovencamp, Grasping At The Shadow has played with Lorna Shore, Rings of Saturn, Hate Eternal, Decapitated, The Browning, and many other national touring acts. After releasing their debut EP\u00a0<strong><em>Nothing After Death<\/em><\/strong>, the band took a brief hiatus before reforming in 2022. Of their hiatus and reformation, the band says\u00a0<em>\u201cTaking a break was not an easy decision to make but the request from fans the world over for more music could not be ignored. So in this era, we set out to create the angriest, most pissed off music we could.<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, the band plans to release more material as singles, filled by a brand new EP, and eventually a full-length album. They are also aiming to transition to becoming a touring act and engage with fans outside of their home state.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a unique approach to Deathcore or a band similar to Filth, Humanity\u2019s Last Breath, or Distant, look no further than Grasping At The Shadow!<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Grasping The Shadow Is:<\/strong><br \/>\nJordan Hanley \u2013 Vocals<br \/>\nKimberly Hovencamp \u2013 Violin<br \/>\nMargaret Applegate \u2013 Bass<br \/>\nDaniel Avalle \u2013 Guitar<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Connect With Grasping The Shadow:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/graspingattheshadow\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/graspingattheshadow\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gatshadow\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/2Ad6ltl0tW68NIn4AejreC?si=SBULkAfwTnSMzOOXYkdgxA&amp;utm_source=copy-link\">Spotify<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bradenton, Florida deathcore band\u00a0Grasping At The Shadow\u00a0has released its newest single, \u201cShards of Glass\u201d.
