Guhts Post Demo Track “Inflection Point”; Touring This Month
Next week, New York’s Guhts head out on the round of summer East Coast touring that will take them to Asheville Doomed and Stoned on their way — such as it is with a big northbound u-turn — to Somergloom in Medford, Massachusetts. The emotive post-metallic crushers have new songs in the set, and to herald the tour on which they’re supporting Somnuri, they’ve posted a demo version of the track “Inflection Point” that will feature on their next (second) full-length in its finished incarnation. Next year for that? Depends on a few different schedules, I guess, between the band and labels. Not that 2025 is lacking quality offerings, but if they wanted to throw it out there to liven up the relative lull of December/January, I wouldn’t complain.
Though, to be fair, that would be a weird thing to complain about anyhow. Like the cover art, I’m thumbs up all the way here.
I get some punker rush here, maybe a nod in the direction of Amyl and the Sniffers as filtered through Guhts‘ atmospheric and aggressive context. It’s short, but immediacy is part of the whole idea, including the theme of the song itself, so it should be.
Info follows from the PR wire:
We’re releasing a demo version of our new song Inflection Point Thursday July 3, 2025.
This version includes demo vocals and is not the finished track that’ll appear on our upcoming album but we wanted to share it with you now, before the tour, to give you a feel for what’s coming.
This release comes with a story.
During our recording session, I (Amber) got sick and wasn’t able to track vocals. But Greg, Scott, and Daniel went into Raw Recording and laid down drums, bass, and guitar with Andrew Schneider and the chemistry was undeniable. Vocals, synth, and additional guitars were recorded by Scott Prater. We’ll be finishing it properly this August, but the heart of the song is already beating.
We’re playing mostly new songs on this tour, and Inflection Point feels like the pulse of everything we’re moving through right now.
Gregory March (False Gods) tracked drums for the recording.
Aidan Schmid (VRSA) is joining us on drums live for this run.
Here’s where you can catch us:
July 9 – Pie Shop, Washington, DC
July 10 – Monstercade, Winston-Salem, NC
July 11 – Flicker, Athens, GA
July 12 – Asheville Doomed & Stoned Fest, Asheville, NC

July 22 – Trans Pecos, Queens, NY
August 7 – Somergloom Fest, Medford, MA
Inflection Point is about this moment we’re all in, when things feel uncertain, systems are shaking, breaking down and people are overwhelmed and scared. It’s easy to point fingers. It’s easy to yell. Here’s what I know.
There is no separation.
Not between you and the person next to you or the person living halfway around the world. Not between your thoughts, your actions, and the world they ripple into.
So the real question is:
Who are you beneath the noise, the labels and the fight?
Can you stay aligned with yourself or are you getting swept into the chaos without checking in first?
This isn’t about dismissing what people are fighting for.
There is real injustice. Real grief.
But I believe there’s a difference between violence and force.
Violence takes. Force protects.
Violence divides. Force clears.
I don’t believe in violence, but I do believe in sacred force.
The kind that rises when you choose response/change over reaction.
This song is an invitation.
To pause.
To go inward.
To ask yourself, What am I contributing to this world?
Because the only way to build a better one… is to start with the world inside of you.
If you want peace, embody it.
If you want connection, tend to it.
Every thought, every word, every interaction shifts the collective field.
We’re at an inflection point and you’re part of it.
Every single person counts.
Let the song move through you. Let it raise questions. Let it stir something deeper.
This is just the beginning.
Thank you for being here with us.
Your Power is Infinite
