Magnolia Park

media release: Orlando sonic storytellers Magnolia Park are back with a brand new single titled “CHASING SHADOWS,” their first new music after opening the portal to their VAMP universe earlier this year. The band’s heaviest and most ambitious album yet was inspired by its members’ love of anime, horror and fantasy, providing the soundtrack to an ominous journey through a dystopian world where rulers and rebels battle with the future hanging in the balance.

With a drum machine and catchy hooks to contrast sludgy guitars and raging melodies, the new track deals with emotional turmoil at the conclusion of VAMP’s narrative where the story’s protagonist (Aurora XI) suffers an extreme loss at the hands of her enemy.

““Chasing Shadows” deals with feeling unworthy of love and the torment of losing someone close to you,” the band explains. “We wanted to write a song about how Aurora feels after losing her sister Ophelia in the battle against the Shadow Cult.”

Blazing onto the scene with an insatiable social media work ethic and prolific musical output, their popular Halloween mixtapes, multi-part Eater EP series and full-length debut, Baku’s Revenge, cemented them not only as a playlist and For You Page favorite for millions of listeners around the world, but a must-see live act on tour with A Day To Remember, From Ashes To New and the inaugural Summer School tour (where they served as a headliner). They’ve also graced the stages of major festivals like Reading and Leeds, When We Were Young, Sonic Temple, Louder Than Life, Welcome To Rockville and Riot Fest, plus the revived Warped Tour stops in D.C., Long Beach and Orlando. Making their way back overseas, in 2026 the band have European performances slated at Download Fest, Rock Am Ring, Rock Im Park, and more, plus a run of dates with BABYMETAL in Australia.
