Modern Angst Reveal “Never Promised Tomorrow” Single & Video

St. Louis, MO’s Modern Angst has a compelling story that reflects both personal and societal struggles. Formed in 2021 by Jared White, the band’s roots are deeply entwined with his need to process and express the tumultuous emotions brought on by the COVID pandemic and the broader social issues of modern America. The pandemic, with its spotlight on social and economic inequalities, served as a catalyst for Jared’s creative process, making music an essential outlet for his feelings of resentment and fear. The band’s lineup is an intriguing mix of musical influences and backgrounds, each member bringing their unique flavor to the collective sound, from punk, hardcore and metal to reggae and ska.

Modern Angst‘s upcoming full-length album, Part X, is set to drop on September 3rd through Columbus, OH’s Punkerton Records. This album represents their growth and deeper exploration of their musical identity, showcasing their ability to blend their varied influences into a cohesive and unique sound. Ahead of the release of Part X the band have now released their latest single, Never Promised Tomorrow. Modern Angst will also be playing a record release show at St. Louis’ The Sinkhole on September 6th with Wes Hoffman & Friends, The Disappeared and The Holy Hand Grenades.

“Part X is our response to that inner dialogue telling you “You’re not good enough”, “you’ll never amount to this or that”. It’s also a broader response to the societal pressures to meet the unrealistic expectation of perfection. While this isn’t necessarily a concept album, the underlying tone throughout is personal growth and empowerment through the daily struggles of the human condition.” (Jared White)
