Though a series of early singles and EP releases had positioned Spiritbox as ones to watch ahead of the release of their 2021 debut album, Eternal Blue is what officially coronated the band as modern metalcore royalty. Recorded in an arid Joshua Tree, California-area studio, though reflective of their coastal Vancouver Island upbringing, Eternal Blue is a deep-dive into Mike Stringer’s djent-dexterous riffage and Courtney LaPlante’s towering sung-and-screamed presence. From “Holy Roller,” to “Circle with Me” to “Secret Garden,” the album features a number of instant classics that set the bar high for the future Grammy-nominees’ impeccably heavy career.
