Northwest Arkansas heavy duo Hell Comes Home have teamed up with Metal Insider to premiere the video for their latest single, “Don’t Go Gentle Into That Good Night.” The track blends deathcore and thrash, drawing from a wide range of influences that include Chelsea Grin, Parkway Drive, and Trivium. Formed by vocalist Sam Simmons and guitarist Nick Stambuck, Hell Comes Home quickly made waves with their 2024 debut single “Demons” and January’s EP Dying Breed.
Simmons comments:
“This song is a visceral rebellion against the quiet decay of modern existence. It’s about the tragedy of people who are technically alive but spiritually dormant, drifting through routines, numbed by comfort, fear, or conformity. The title of the song was inspired by Dylan Thomas’s 1947 poem, which pleads for defiance in the face of death.
The lyric “blink once, blink twice, your life is flashing by but you’re too young to die” is a rallying cry—a brutal reminder that time doesn’t wait for permission. It’s a call to arms against mediocrity, urging listeners to wake up, break free from the herd, and chase what sets their soul on fire. The song’s aggressive tone and relentless energy mirror the urgency of its message: don’t be a sheep, don’t settle, and don’t go gentle—not into death, but into the slow fade of a life unlived.”
