“»Thanks For Nothing« touches on the relationships and friendships that we put a lot of energy into and feel left empty in return because the other person gave us nothing positive to hold onto, not even effort. People we put our trust, time and even love into turn out not to be who we thought they were. It can really mess with your head and worse, make you feel worthless. “Thanks For Nothing” is a general middle finger to those people.” – Tyler Ennis (vocals)

OF VIRTUE’s new record, »What Defines You«, further establishes the band as a one of Michigan’s finest metal bands to emerge in years. The band’s dynamic mix of hardcore, metal and rock along with their positive lyrics for the downtrodden and explosive live performances help separate them from the cluttered scene.

“»What Defines You« is a testament to anyone who has been told to give up, been beaten down by life, for those who believe that they aren’t good enough, those who struggle to dream, or see beyond their own circumstances. With »What Defines You« we chose to tell ourselves that we will construct our own future, for better or for worse, through hard work, dedication, and learning from our past.” – OF VIRTUE

The band followed in 2012 with »Learn/Love«, a limited release EP, which sold out almost immediately. In 2015, OF VIRTUE added more power to their sound via the release, »Salvation«, an album which has grown to be a staple for the band’s sound. Later in 2017, the band released a stand-alone single, ‘Ghost Town,’ and quickly added it to their live show only to be met with a major positive response. After this the band followed with their breakthrough singles ‘Surrounded,’ ‘Torn Apart‘ and ‘Suffer.’
