Sweet Gloom will hit the road soon in support of Streetlight Manifesto on a US West Coast tour. The band isn't just on tour though -- they shared a new single called "Loudmouths" too.

The single was recorded with producer Paul Miner during the sessions for Reverie, which released in 2023 on Asian Man Records and was unreleased until now.

"The song puts the listener smack dab in the middle of a tumultuous relationship," said guitarist/vocalist Jaake Margo says via press release. "You ask your partner: if we argue this much, are we ever gonna make it? Are we soulmates or are we destined for failure?"

The band is also scheduled to play at FEST 23 in October.
