Following the release of singles “Infection,” “Paralyzed,” and more, Memphis May Fire has returned with “Hell Is Empty” and its official music video via Rise Records. Lead vocalist Matty Mullins shares, “‘Hell Is Empty’ is a reflection on the chaos and destruction we see in the world today.

A new era of Memphis May Fire is upon us. The band unleashed their brand-new single and accompanying music for “Chaotic.” This marks their first release since 2023’s collab with GARZI, “GrowingUp.” and “Misery” featuring Atreyu. “‘Chaotic’ embodies the visceral urge to stir chaos in our lives as a desperate attempt to drown out the pain of reality,” frontman Matty Mullins explains. “I think I crave chaotic/I don’t taste the pain when I stay neurotic/So why would I want to change,” sings Mullins over trashing guitar tones and ahead of guttural, hard-hitting breakdown.
