We know the past year has been full of gloom and doom, but that's just the state of the world lately.

And that's reflected in the new single from newcomer Billy & the Devil, led by a mysterious figure who shared their debut single "Even If It Kills Me" on Friday. The song is a chilling offering but it comes from a place which is very relatable.

"When the burden gets too much, sometimes the only choice is to turn your back and walk away. There’s a power in forgiveness and in starting again,” said Billy about the new song. “We all feel the effects of isolation more than ever, and I felt that grip tightening. For a while there, my instinct was to leave everything and everyone I knew behind.”

The new track was produced by Variance favorites The Darcys (aka Wes Marskell and Jason Couse). Billy & the Devil's debut EP is expected later this year.
