Artist 1:
seaspyre choir
Song - "spellbound"
I asked seaspyre choir, "what makes your band unique?" This is what they had to say;
We are a band formed on tiktok! The members met on tiktok while sharing music and debut our first song on Jan 2nd of 2026. If your a fan of 2000s emo and post hardcore you'll love what we do."
A bit more about seaspyre choir (taken from their Spotify):
seaspyre choir is a modern post hardcore project blending the emotional punch of 2000's emo & post hardcore with the weight and atmosphere of modern metal. Featuring Matt Strahl (guitar, bass, production), Jordan Carlson (vocals), and Dale Rich (drums) the band delivers soaring melodies, crushing breakdowns, and catchy harmonic vocals mixed with raw screams. Their debut single "spellbound" marks the beginning of a dark, cinematic sound built for fans of melody and mayhem alike.
