Pressure Point is the second track, following Aftermath, to be lifted from their new album. The self-titled follow-up to 2014's 'Dear Youth' is due out on June 5. Bassist Jim Riley said:
“Almost all TGI songs take the listener on a journey from dark to light or from despair to hope. On this record, we made a conscious effort to let individual songs explore different emotions we’ve been experiencing and not force them to have a positive turn. We feel like the album as a whole will give you that hopeful feeling, even though a song like ‘Pressure Point; might not do that by itself. Instead, we embraced being pissed off and let it pour out through some of the most aggressive and pointed lyrics we’ve ever had. We try to avoid cursing in our songs but sometimes you’re just so fed up that nothing less than a big loud fuck will get the job done.“
The song is an unrelenting hardcore beast that finds vocalist Jonathan Vigil's lyrics as wilfully defiant as on the record's previous cut. "Misery doesn’t love company, and I refuse to be defined by suffering," he screams.
The Ghost Inside are still set to follow up the album's release with a one-off UK show at the O2 Academy Brixton in London on July 4, provided COVID-19 doesn't scupper their plans.
