Fresh off the heels of its three previous single releases, Philadelphia chaotic metalcore band Pipe Bomb is dropping one final stand-alone song called “I Will Kill The Worst Parts Of Myself” on January 27th, 2026, in support of its upcoming 10-song album, “Hell Hole.” Mixed and mastered by John Naclario of Nada Recording (My Chemical Romance, Senses Fail), “I Will Kill The Worst Parts Of Myself” stays true to the project’s math/metalcore roots, veering away from the chains of song structure and embracing a flair for dissonance.
Lyrically, the single tackles the task of taking accountability for one’s own mental faults. “It’s easy to dismiss the bad habits we have as simply being a byproduct of our struggles: depression, anxiety, hurt — but we each have a responsibility to deal with the things in our lives that are making our existence worse,” says vocalist Mitchell Layton. “This song is about acknowledging the ways of thinking and ways of being that sabotage life, and although they may not seem like it, are at least partially within my means to control.”
“It’s not a nice thought to know that you, in part, are contributing to your own daily misery,” continues Layton, “but there’s no getting around it. Even if it doesn’t solve everything, it’s your responsibility to deal with your demons. You have to kill the worst parts of yourself.”
The lyrics are cutting, but surprisingly optimistic, written in a brief moment of spiteful vengeance toward the belligerence of the mind and serving as a screaming resolution for willing stubborn happiness into existence through gratitude.
Pipe Bomb’s debut single, "False God,” hit the ground running and gained them exposure on platforms like the Kingdom Core Podcast and NewReleaseToday's Apple Music playlist, "New Christian Metal." Their follow-up EP, Stomp (via The Charon Collective), solidified their presence as a force in the modern Christian metal scene. “I Will Kill The Worst Parts Of Myself” will be available to stream everywhere on January 27, 2026.
