Belfast metal crossover force Survivalist return with ‘A Place For Those Who Suffer, Alone,’ out now via Seek & Strike Records. The four-piece deliver their first full-length in nearly two years with sharpened focus and crushing intent. Built on their self-defined “Groovecore” sound, the album blends melody, groove-driven momentum, and punishing breakdowns into a volatile and emotionally charged statement.

Fronted by Gavin Sharp alongside Nick Butcher, Lee Shaw, and Rhys Fraser, Survivalist channel isolation, internal conflict, and modern pressure into a dense, disciplined body of work. The title track stands at the center, pairing muscular low-end force with precise rhythmic turns and a chorus engineered for impact. It is confrontational, calculated, and unrelenting.

An official video for the title track expands the album’s dark emotional core with cinematic visuals and visceral performance shots. The record also features “Deathbed” with Alex Koehler, “Radio Bleed,” “Failure Of Being” with Josh Sid Robinson, and an appearance from Kid Bookie. With this release, Survivalist cement their place as one of Ireland’s most formidable heavy acts heading into 2026.
