SPIRITBOX By The Numbers
A look at the Canadian band one year into Eternal Blue
A look at SPIRITBOX By The Numbers, a year into Eternal Blue.
The band whose unstoppable songs, like “Holy Roller” and “Circle With Me,” summon even the most jaded of scenesters to the cause. Husband and wife duo Courtney LaPlante and Mike Stringer, both of them latter-era members of a defunct midtier metalcore band, created a shockingly stunning new project musically, visually, and aesthetically from their Canadian compound. Compositions, costumes, set design, “cinematography” via iPhones…
Courtney’s diverse vocal delivery; Stringer’s deft combination of transcendent melody, and post-Meshuggah rhythms; all combined for something that is somehow warmly familiar and breathtakingly unique at the same time.
Together with longtime manager Jason Mageau (Roc Nation), Spiritbox self-released material via their own Pale Chord Records, then joined with Sean Heydorn and the team at Rise Records. Eternal Blue was the result.
Boom.
