Austin heavy rock trio Demons My Friends share new video »The Isolate«; new album coming early 2026 on Ripple Music!
Austin-based heavy rock trio Demons My Friends have recently signed to Ripple Music for the release of their new album in early 2026, and present a brand new track with »The Isolate« today!
»The Isolate« is the result of a very personal exploration for the band members, who focused on trying to reflect through this song the high anxiety that they experienced as socially awkward teenagers many years ago. This song also seeks to introduce the audience to the thematic grounding that will be the foundation for their soon-to-be-announced sophomore release.

About the song, guitarist and vocalist Pablo Anton says, “Demons My Friends continues to be a therapeutic effort for all of us, and with this new song we wanted to shine a light on our teen years. One of the best things from growing up is getting some perspective on the dramas from our past, and looking back at events in our lives that were really overwhelming in the moment, but later mean absolutely nothing. It reflects how much of the dramas in our lives can be mostly invented by our own minds, by our own demons, and live only inside us but they don’t exist in the real world and other people can’t even perceive them.”

“The surreal, apocalyptic imagery matches the dark and downbeat vibe of the sludgy track. Think fuzz. Think riffs. Think drop-tuned heaviness.” — Decibel Magazine
“Alternative doom is not a new thing, although I think it’s yet to truly mature, and this group definitely has the chops to carry the genre further.” – Invisible Oranges

Demons My Friends is a Mexican band that blends elements of rock, post-punk, and doom. The power trio embarked on their creative endeavor via an impromptu recording session at the SXSW music festival in Austin, TX in 2022 and have consummated their relationship with their debut full-length titled »Demons Seem To Gather«, which was produced and mixed by Jeff Henson (Duel, Greenbeard, Spirit Adrift, Clutch) and mastered by Alberto de Icaza. They have also provided direct tour support for artists like Bruce Dickinson and Graveyard.
Their approach is typically described as both emotionally charged and sonically adventurous, mixing raw power with a sense of reflective moodiness while their thematic focus often deals with personal struggles, societal themes, and the complexities of human experience with a touch of existential or philosophical contemplation.
