Meet Me @ The Altar have returned with their new single, “Say It (To My Face)” today. Propelled by a gang-vocal fueled chorus, the new track arrives as the first taste of music from the band’s forthcoming debut album, out early next year. Directed by Jack Campise, the single is accompanied by an official music video which follows the band’s journey to confront an internet troll. Watch the video now below.
Meet Me @ The Altar expanded on the single, “The song is essentially a diss track to all of our haters. We all have a love/hate relationship with the internet – it quite literally brought us together, but people also use the internet as a crutch to help mask their insecurities behind a screen and try to project them on us a lot of the time. They never seem to have the guts to actually say it to our faces.”
“The video serves as a real time portrayal of who we envision as the culprits when we see hateful comments left on our social media accusing us of everything from being industry plants to not playing our own instruments – like a Catfish-style expose to go see how your bullies are actually living (usually not well).”
The group continued, “When our fans listen to this song and encounter bullies in their day-to-day life, we want them to remember that those people are only cruel because they’re hurting! Part of growing up is figuring out how to not internalize anyone else’s bad vibes and just loving yourself instead.”
Meet Me @ The Altar is currently on tour with MUNA in support of their North American headline dates, which include three nights at New York City’s Irving Plaza and two nights at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, CA. The trio is also slated to perform at the 2022 TwitchCon San Diego party as part of an all-women lineup that includes Megan The Stallion and Kim Petras, as well as the highly anticipated When We Were Young festival in Las Vegas, NV this October.
