White Reaper is back and sounding bigger, bolder, and more unapologetically themselves than ever. Today, the Louisville rockers announced their signing to Blue Grape Music and unveiled their upcoming full-length album, Only Slightly Empty, set for release on September 26th. Alongside the news comes a blistering new single and music video, “Honestly,” setting the tone for a record that’s primed to be one of the band’s most anthemic yet.

“Honestly” is a tightly wound alt-rock bomb that detonates with massive hooks, fuzzy guitars, and the band’s signature blend of chaos and charisma. It’s the kind of track that begs to be blasted through blown-out speakers on a reckless drive, laced with heartache, swagger, and just enough self-awareness to keep it cool. There’s a frantic energy pulsing beneath every note, giving it that unmistakable White Reaper edge.

The accompanying video leans into the band’s raw, DIY sensibilities—equal parts retro and rebellious. It’s a grainy fever dream of basement shows, cigarette smoke, and emotional unraveling, perfectly matching the track’s lyrical confessions.

With Only Slightly Empty, White Reaper looks to further cement their reputation as one of rock’s most vital acts, equal parts party starters and chaos conductors. The new partnership with Blue Grape Music marks an exciting chapter, providing the band with fresh momentum and a platform to expand even further.

If “Honestly” is any indication, Only Slightly Empty is going to hit hard, fast, and right where it hurts, then make you hit replay.

Stay tuned for more singles as September 26 approaches. In the meantime, pre-order the album and then crank up “Honestly” and let the anticipation build.
