Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.
The featured article for Thursday, 17 September 2026, is Eternal Blue (album).
Eternal Blue is the debut studio album by the Canadian heavy metal band Spiritbox. It was released on September 17, 2021, through the band's label Pale Chord Records in partnership with Rise Records. Vocalist Courtney LaPlante and guitarist Mike Stringer formed Spiritbox in 2016 following their departure from Iwrestledabearonce. After revealing the project and releasing an extended play (EP) in 2017, Spiritbox began development on Eternal Blue in 2018. In the meantime, the band recorded several other singles that were compiled into a second EP in 2019. Their first full-length record was scheduled for an April 2020 release but development and promotion were initially halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
After releasing "Holy Roller" and "Constance" as singles in the latter half of 2020, Spiritbox relocated to Joshua Tree, California, in early 2021 and completed songwriting for the album. Stringer and former Volumes guitarist Daniel Braunstein produced the project, and Braunstein finished the recording in early March 2021. Eternal Blue includes several heavy metal genres and subgenres, and electronic elements, and LaPlante used both screamed and clean vocals on the album. The album showcases influences from Slipknot, Deftones, Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears, and several other artists. Once recording was completed, three more songs were released as singles prior to the release of Eternal Blue: "Circle with Me", "Secret Garden", and "Hurt You".
All five singles from the album reached the American Billboard charts. The album charted in eight other countries and debuted at number thirteen on the Billboard 200; numerous publications placed the album on their yearly best-of lists. Eternal Blue received universal acclaim from music critics, who praised its production, songwriting, and musicianship.
