Official press release: 

"Doomswitch" — A term used to describe a theoretical mechanism where an online poker site inflicts bad luck on a player.

And, as of today, it's the very moniker sparking the start of a brand new chapter for Perth metalcore outfit Make Them Suffer. Their new single "Doomswitch" showcases a renewed sonic spirit for the group, as well as being the first song to feature new member Alex Reade.

Taking up the position as clean vocalist and keyboardist aka "The Fifth Member" for Make Them Suffer, Reade (ex-Drown This City) seamlessly welds into the Make Them Suffer psyche. With symphonic flourishes, blasting beats, jagged guitars, and oscillating light and shade between frontman Sean Harmanis and Reade, "Doomswitch" is equally energetic and ethereal, leveling up the band's heaviness alongside emphatic melodics while presenting a resonating narrative: "It's not how you get knocked down / It's how you get back up."

The song's blistering music video was directed by Colin Jeffs and filmed at The Paint Factory in Brisbane. 

Check out the new video below.
