Spiritbox Teams With Slander on Crushing EDM Collaboration

Spiritbox Teams With Slander on Crushing EDM Collaboration

THE DROP

Spiritbox vocalist Courtney LaPlante just dropped "Under My Skin" with L.A. DJ duo SLANDER — a rock-dubstep hybrid three years in the making that pairs her growls and cleans with bass drops and chunky guitar riffs from Mike Stringer *. SLANDER had been road-testing a demo version in their live sets before the official June 12 release *.

WHAT TO KNOW

  • Features both LaPlante's signature growled and sung vocals over SLANDER's bass drops, with Stringer contributing guitar riffs and lead lines *
  • The collaboration took more than three years to complete from initial concept to release *
  • Dropped the day after Spiritbox kicked off their North American tour with Evanescence in Tampa *
  • LaPlante has been expanding her EDM crossover presence — she appeared on stage with Illenium earlier this year *

THE TAKE

The combination of LaPlante's vocal precision and Stringer's riffs with electronic production could either validate the rock-EDM crossover or feel like a compromise neither side asked for. SLANDER praised LaPlante's studio scream performance as "astounding" *, which suggests the metal elements weren't watered down — that's the detail that matters.
