Houston Based Deathcore Band OF THE FALLEN Unleashes a Metal Onslaught with Their Explosive New Single “COUNTERFEIT//SKIN”
Brace yourself. The gates have opened, and the storm has arrived. OF THE FALLEN, the relentless force in modern metal, has returned with their most vicious, soul-rattling track yet — “COUNTERFEIT//SKIN.” A sonic eruption of pure fury and uncompromising truth, the single drops today on all major streaming platforms, sending shockwaves through the metal scene. Combining guttural growls, face-melting riffs, and machine-gun percussion, “COUNTERFEIT//SKIN” is a battle cry against the fake, the hollow, and the soulless. It’s not just a song — it’s a warpath.
“COUNTERFEIT//SKIN” is a song that talks about body dysphoria and the images we set for ourselves as well as society has imprinted on us to abide by. Whether you’re skinny, fat, a body builder, they/them, male or female, or any other views we view ourselves as that we do not care for or want to abide by.
This is an anthem of a bigger concept in which we all struggle with mental health and aspects that impact our daily lives.
OF THE FALLEN is a Houston-based deathcore band pushing the genre’s emotional and sonic boundaries. With the addition of new vocalist Jacob Cormier, the band unleashes a renewed fury on their latest single “COUNTERFEIT//SKIN,” a punishing yet deeply personal track exploring body dysphoria. Guitarists Wayne Ortiz and Alexis Ramon Nino, along with drummer
Waylon Murphree, form the foundation of a sound that’s as relentless as it is cathartic. Unafraid to confront internal struggles head-on, OF THE FALLEN blends’ brutal breakdowns with haunting atmosphere—music that hits hard and cuts deep.
