In This Moment have returned with their first new music of 2026, and it signals that they aren’t mincing their words in this new era.
Titled ‘Sleeping With The Enemy’, it finds the band reaching the perfect balance between harmony and high-stakes aggression, with vocalist Maria Brink dealing out heart-bruised admissions and throat-shredding refrains. It’s a song that feels as discomforting as it is disgusted, a look at how it feels to have betrayal on your very doorstep. Set against a soundtrack that is readymade for arena stages, it’s a sign of even bigger things to come than what have already transpired.
Maria had this to say about the track, and where it slots into where the band are right now:
“With ‘Sleeping with the Enemy’ and our upcoming album, we’re confronting the darkness — whether it’s inside us or external. It’s about looking that darkness in the face and transforming it into empowerment. We feel so exhilarated and ready to show the world what we’ve conjured up.”
The track follows on from ‘Heretic’ featuring Kim Dracula, which arrived last year and will also appear on the band’s upcoming ninth album, their first for Better Noise Music.
