Motionless in White have poured out more “Sweat and Blood” in the lead-up to their next album, Decades. Following the recent “Playing God” collab with Slipknot’s Corey Taylor, the metalcore mainstays have delivered a melodic, mournful team-up with singer-songwriter Skylar Grey called “R.I.P.” The new song is described in a press release as evoking “the power of a lover s lament inscribed on a headstone,” and begins with a dramatic piano intro and a vocal turn from guest singer Grey. Chris Motionless comes in soon after, contemplating loss above a powerful, but melancholic hard rock arrangement (“This can’t be the end!”). MIW’s leader said in a statement that the tune was written through “a romantic lens,” but its themes of loss “can be applied to any moment in your life when you ve had a falling out with someone you deeply care about, whether that s a best friend, family member, or romantic partner.” He continues: “The song really hones in on the deafening silence that follows after you ve said hurtful things to one another that you wish you could take back. It s meant to capture the tension that exists in that quiet space of separation. “You want to apologize and make things right, but you don t know how. You want to tell them you love them more than anything and can t live without them, but there s a lot of pain on both sides that has to be confronted first. All the while, you re left with the crippling uncertainty of whether the relationship can ever recover and move forward, or if it s destined to be laid to rest and gone forever.” He added of the duet, “Skylar s voice brought it to another level that I never could have achieved on my own.” Pay your respects by giving Motionless in White’s “R.I.P.” a stream up above. As previously reported, Motionless in White’s Decades sees release July 17th via Roadrunner Records. The record includes “Playing God” and early 2026 single “Afraid of the Dark”. A pre-order for Decades on Black, Ruby and Tax vinyl is currently available in Revolver s shop. The summer leg of Motionless in White’s “The Sweat and Blood Tour” begins July 14th at Bridgeport, Connecticut’s Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater, and features support from Lorna Shore, Fit for a King and Static Dress. The tour resumes October 30th at Worcester, Massachusetts’ DCU Center, but with Dayseeker, the Devil Wears Prada and Dark Divine as the openers. You’ll find the full tour breakdown here.
