ROMAN CANDLE DROP NEW SINGLE “NOTHING IS ORIGINAL”
Las Vegas hardcore firebrand Roman Candle returns with a brand new single, “Nothing Is Original,” a track that hits like a gut punch and refuses to let go. Out today through Sumerian Records, the release arrives with a gripping music video that brings the band’s raw, volatile energy to life. It marks yet another step in the band’s rapidly growing catalog since signing to the label earlier this year.
Vocalist Piper Ferrari shared the significance behind the track, explaining, “’ Nothing Is Original’ was the first song we wrote for the new record, and it set the emotional temperature for everything that followed. Those early lines, holier than thou, holier than me, opened the door to a kind of raw self-interrogation we hadn’t tapped into before. It became the blueprint for the entire album. Messy, honest, and painfully human.”
The song reflects exactly that. Roman Candle lean harder into emotional abrasion than ever before, pushing their blend of hardcore into sharper, more exposed territory. The guitars cut with urgency, the drums run hot, and Ferrari’s vocals sound like they were torn straight out of a journal and thrown into the mic without a filter.
The music video matches the emotional weight of the track. Shot with a stark, unvarnished eye, it captures the feeling of a band confronting itself as much as facing the world around it. No gimmicks. No gloss. Just Roman Candle digging deeper than before.
“Nothing Is Original” is a mission statement. It is a declaration that Roman Candle is not interested in copying, recreating, or softening anything for the sake of comfort. They want the truth, and they want it loud.
