Southwest metalcore band Blossoms Fall sign exclusive worldwide deal with Eclipse Records

Eclipse Records is thrilled to announce the signing of BLOSSOMS FALL, a metalcore band from Albuquerque, New Mexico (USA) who own the sweet spot of our sonic zone with an enormous guitar sound and ferocious growl vocals! The band recently finished recording their debut EP entitled La Alma with Matt Torres of Nightscape Recordings (Lights on the Coast, Wasted Potency) producing the album, and mastered by Kevin Thrasher (Escape the Fate, Machine Gun Kelly, Blink-182, Avril Lavigne) at Thrasher Productions. La Alma will be released via Eclipse Records on February 6, 2026.

“Having met some members of Mushroomhead while recording an EP with Producer/Engineer Don DeBiase back in 2014 and opening for the band Bobaflex around that time as well, I’ve often heard of Eclipse Records and appreciated the label’s contribution to the Metal scene.” says guitarist Matt Torres. “Now that my new band can debut with Eclipse Records, I’m ecstatic to become part of the ongoing front and hope to make an impact on the Modern Metal scene. This record is different, but it will hopefully open up doors to a wider audience and bridge gaps in the industry.”

Vocalist Shay Raelynn adds “I’m very grateful for this opportunity. Eclipse Records has an amazing roster and I am so happy to be a part of it. The excitement is real for the opportunities that may be presented while working with them, and it’s going to be a great time!”

Dion Elliott (drums) also adds “We’re very excited to be a part of Eclipse Records. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be among such amazing artists on an independent label with creative freedom. This is gonna be a blast!”

The new album La Alma by Blossoms Fall is metalcore, but so much more than the current genre classification would indicate. Genre is a moniker, a nickname if you will, and in terms of La Alma, we could thrust a slew of “warriors” into the ring for this fight, like hyper pop, emo core, or modern metalcore with a trance vibe. We could claim that Blossoms Fall create music that resembles a good thriller soundtrack in that they lead our emotions one way, and then they twist us into unexpected contexts, causing glorious disequilibrium and life changing interpretations of our own emotional and psychological landscapes. In other words, this album is a blast of beautiful chaos leading us to the edge of the cliff yet giving us wings…to the lip of the abyss armed with a blazing torch and a backbone of granite. Musically, the first thing we might notice is that drums are absolute thunder, produced to be a force in the forefront and earning its position with monster fills even in the verses. The guitar work is heavy with maximum crunch, like a fiery blast from the jaws of the dragon, the bass a “wall of pound” and the vocals cleverly patterned with textured growls and melodic tapestries. We are also given flashes of ethereal keys and tasty syncopation, demonstrating the band’s ability to not only show force but to add a flavor profile unique, devasting, and addictive as hell. La Alma was produced and mixed by Matthew Torres (Lights on the Coast, Cloudtrails, and Wasted Potency), mastered by Kevin Thrasher (MGK, Blink 182, Escape the Fate, and Iann Dior). The album art was designed by Luis Escalara of Adelphia Studios, and it is scheduled for release on February 6, 2026.
