A new music video accompanies THROWN INTO EXILE’s single Remorse (feat. Michael Amott), released November 5, 2026, via BLKIIBLK. The track features a guest guitar solo from Arch Enemy’s Michael Amott and marks the Los Angeles band’s second release for the label.
The collaboration connects current tour mates: THROWN INTO EXILE are on the road supporting Arch Enemy and The Black Dahlia Murder. Amott explains that guitarist Mario Rubio approached him about contributing to the recording.
“I’ve been watching THROWN INTO EXILE steadily grow over the last couple of years, so when Mario brought the opportunity to lay down a guest solo on one of their tracks, it was a no-brainer to team up with my current tour mates. Give it a listen!” Amott says.
Rubio describes the exchange of guitar leads: “What more can I say that hasn't been said? He is the master of melodies, and having his feel and legendary phrasing on this song is nothing short of an honor. What an experience to trade a lead with him!”
The song addresses regret and the emotional cost of investing in something that leads back to the same starting point. THROWN INTO EXILE explain: “ ‘Remorse (feat. Michael Amott)’ is a personal song that deals with how much of yourself you are willing to give to something that only results in being where you started and the emotional weight that comes with that, past mistakes, things that could have been handled better and carrying that with you.”
The blackened melodeath band’s announcement introduces 27-year-old vocalist Josh Santos and describes the new material as combining urgent riffs with underlying melody, drawing on American and European sounds. The single also previews further material to come in 2027.
THROWN INTO EXILE’s touring background includes appearances alongside Arch Enemy, Orbit Culture, At The Gates, Dethklok and Black Label Society, plus US and European festivals, including the UK’s Bloodstock. The announced lineup comprises Mario Rubio, Austin Monzon, Sayit Quinto, Hank Lin and Joshua Santos.
