FATAL SWITCH RELEASES NEW SINGLE “ARTHUR FLECK” – LISTEN HERE
NEW ALBUM BLACK SKY ANTHEM, OUT JUNE 26, 2026 – PRE-ORDER HERE
Fatal Switch unleashes their explosive new single “Arthur Fleck,” a dark and emotionally charged anthem that dives deep into identity, isolation, and the psychological breaking point created by a disconnected world. Blending crushing riffs, volatile energy, and haunting melodic hooks, the track captures the inner war between vulnerability and survival instinct. Serving as one of the defining moments on their upcoming album Black Sky Anthem, “Arthur Fleck” showcases a band evolving beyond aggression into something more cinematic, personal, and dangerously honest.
“We all have a joker in us. That version of ourselves we’ve created when the world overlooks you, dismisses you, and pushes you aside. Eventually, you learn to wear a mask just to survive. This song lives in that chaotic tension between who you really are and the manic character you become to protect yourself when the world stops seeing you as human.” – Fatal Switch

Black Sky Anthem, out June 26, 2026 , is their most ambitious and fully realized release to date. Marking the first time the band has written and recorded as a unified unit, the album represents a complete creative rebirth. Following their debut, Tobin rebuilt Fatal Switch from the ground up, assembling a lineup driven not only by intensity, but by a shared commitment to exceptional songwriting.
Recorded at Uplift Recording Studios and produced by Kevin Jardine (Slaves on Dope), Black Sky Anthem captures a band fully in command of its identity. Jardine’s extensive production credits, including work with members of Korn, Papa Roach, Limp Bizkit, 311, In Flames, Cypress Hill, Beastie Boys, Faith No More, Mastodon, Run-DMC, Anthrax, and Sepultura, bring a polished yet aggressive edge to the album.

Fatal Switch isn’t just a band, it’s a response. A reaction to a world that feels rigged, violent, and indifferent. Born in Montreal and fueled by equal parts fury and vulnerability, Fatal Switch blends nu-metal’s raw aggression with rapcore bite and post-hardcore emotion to create music that speaks for those who feel silenced, overlooked, or crushed by the system.
The band is composed of Steve Tobin (vocals), Ralph A. Samah (drums), David Vigliotti (bass), and Max Rope (guitar). While their debut album Doctors & Demons introduced the project to the underground earning Stingray Loud rotations, over 133,000 streams, festival showcases at CMW and Indie Week, and a commissioned theme for Apex Wrestling. They also received press acclaim in Vents, The Mirage, The Outer Void, Original Rock Net, and more. Their latest release represents a complete rebirth.
Fatal Switch doesn’t offer easy answers. They offer honesty, volume, and connection. This album isn’t just music, it’s a mirror, a weapon, and a lifeline for anyone still fighting to feel alive.
