Fiddlehead have dropped the second single from their upcoming album, Death is Nothing To Us. "Sleepyhead" is a mosh pit-ready moment from the hardcore band with the bouncy rhythms softening vocalist Pat Flyn's pitch black vocals.

Between the riffs, Flyn paints a portrait of a person dealing with a tough period in their life by sleeping through it all. Flynn discussed the new song in a statement, saying "There’s no real great lyrical upside to this song.

It is kind of a conversation between two people or two minds. Read Next: Fiddlehead's new hardcore song “Sullenboy” is fearless "The so-called ‘Sleepyhead’ is a woeful person depressed by the way of the world who chooses to deal with the sadness of it all with excessive sleep.
