Messa Unveils New Music Video The Dress

The stunning new track, which includes a trumpet solo by Michele Tedesco, comes off the bands forthcoming new full-length, The Spin, set for release on April 11th through Metal Blade Records.

Sailing past their tenth anniversary in 2024, Messa takes another step towards legendary status with their majestic fourth album The Spin, which takes its listeners on a breathtaking journey across the wide-open skies of their creative imagination and over a compelling landscape of moods, twists, and styles.

Based in the band's eclectic, self-defined scarlet doom sound, The Spin rises, falls, broods, bites, comforts, and destroys, all the while resounding with both instinctive magic and obsessive, concerted hard work.

After lighting up the underground with a triptych of increasingly distinctive and wondrous records 2016s Belfry, 2018s Feast For Water, and 2022s Close Messa is audibly equipped for the proverbial big leagues.

Comments the band on The Dress:This song comes from the darkest place and the unfathomable void of oneself. Pain circles around, emerging violently and then drowning again in the depths. This is reflected in the riff: the descent scale keeps coming back and circles repetitively. The dress, in this case, is the gateway to a personal crucifix built with self-hatred and mirroring despair.
