Gore. to release new EP ‘… Then You Cannot Love Me’ on Oct. 9

Fresh off a summer 2026 tour with Kittie, Texas metal four-piece Gore. will release the EP “… Then You Cannot Love Me” on Oct. 9, 2026, via Spinefarm Records. Pre-save it here, and watch the music video for the new single, “Crucified,” below.

“This song is about someone who is so seductive that they lead you right into temptation,” vocalist Haley Roughton said. “They have you wrapped around their finger, and they know it. You idolize them. You try as hard as you can to resist, but there’s something both painful and pleasurable about their presence, so you give into them and whatever chaos you know they’ll bring.”


“… Then You Cannot Love Me” track listing:

“What You Paid For”
Lead Me to the Slaughter
“Bones In the Garden”
Crucified
“Walk on Water”
“Hallowed Ground”
“Alone”

Gore.’s two latest EPs always were meant to be sisters. One is not complete without the other, and even though “If You Do Not Fear Me …” was released a year before its counterpart, the ellipsis at the end of its title made it seem like it was holding its breath for something else to come. 

“We always wanted to release it like that,” Roughton said. “We wanted a more looming, cynical sound in the first EP, and as time went on, we wanted to develop the sound towards something closer to what we want to sound like as a band together. I’m hoping the fans, especially those who have been with us since day one, can see the evolution and how those two connect.”
