Electro-emo angst-pop sensation Air Drawn Dagger has just unveiled the music video for their latest single, “Sanctifound,” from their debut album A Guide For Apparitions, dropping April 4 via Long Branch Records. BBC Introducing describes their tracks as “Superb, truly epic… Unreal!” and Bring The Noise praises the band for having “enough teenage angst to fill any nostalgic millennial who misses the good old days of 2000s emo.”
Directed by Aaran McKenzie from While She Sleeps, the “Sanctifound” video takes listeners on a gripping journey, incorporating an acoustic guitar intro riff inspired by Lamb of God, and leading into intense scenes featuring ‘The Martyrs’ and thrilling mosh pit moments.

Get ready to watch the video and stream “Sanctifound” as you pre-order the eagerly-anticipated album. Produced by Neil Kennedy, known for his work with Creeper and Boston Manor, the album promises a fusion of hauntingly mystical tales and genre-blending rock.
As the band explains, “A Guide For Apparitions brings multiple meanings. The record can be a Grimoire if you’re being haunted, or a guide if you are the one confined to a realm you don’t belong.”
Tracklisting for A Guide For Apparitions includes:
– “Hymn Of The Hag”
– “Sanctifound”
– “Sweatin’”
– “Teeth”
– “Skinwalkers”
– “Cadavers”
– “MaidenMotherCrone”
– “Castle”
– “Necromancer”
– “Coma”
– “Apparitions” (featuring Tobi Duncan of Trash Boat)
– “Bellyaches”

Formed with an aura inspired by the chaos of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, Air Drawn Dagger blends raw emotion into a sound that defies conventional genres. Leaping onto influential playlists like Pop Punk Generation and Emo Anthems, and notorious for packed-out shows, the band boasts over 250,000 views on their hit video “You Should Have Known Better.”
