The Mandevilles End Four-Year Silence With Electrifying Co-Produced New Single "Every Bit Of Violence"

After a four-year hiatus from the airwaves, the visceral rock and roll force The Mandevilles has officially returned with their brand-new single, “Every Bit Of Violence”.

Out now via Snareguy Records, the track marks a high-stakes evolution for the Welland-based outfit, blending the raw energy of rock and roll with a modern, alternative edge. Built on a foundation of grit and cinematic intensity, the single arrives as a powerful reminder of why founding partners Serena Pryne and Nick Lesyk have remained a cornerstone of the Canadian rock scene for over a decade.

The genesis of “Every Bit Of Violence” is as legendary as the sound itself; the song was quite literally written live on stage during a low-key afternoon gig. When an impromptu riff from Lesyk sparked an immediate vocal melody from Pryne, the band mapped out the structure of the track in real-time, capturing the lightning-in-a-bottle moment via phone recordings. This spirit of total spontaneity carried into the studio, where the band—rounded out by guitarist/synthesist Taylor Laslo—collaborated with mixer and co-producer Russ Donohue to refine a sound that Pryne describes as "magical" and "harmonious".

Lyrically, the track delves into heavy, introspective territory, serving as a visceral release for emotions surrounding mental health and family legacies of self-destruction. Pryne’s powerhouse vocals anchor the track's weight, offering a sense of communal resilience through the driving melody: "The words 'Every Bit of Violence' just came hammering in... it helps to know you're not the only one". It is a bold, honest exploration of internal struggles, delivered with the kind of sonic "punch" that the band believes would be right at home in a high-stakes action franchise.

The Mandevilles have spent the last several years subconsciously working toward this definitive sound, which bridges the gap between Americana soul and hard-hitting indie rock. The addition of synth textures and effortless studio layers highlights a creative telepathy that has only deepened during their time away from the spotlight. With bassist Ryan Defoe and drummer Jim Hornak providing a relentless rhythmic backbone, the single stands as the band’s most confident and cohesive statement to date.

Accompanying the release is a newly unveiled lyric video, with an official music video slated for debut in the coming weeks. As they kick off a prolific 2026, The Mandevilles are proving that some things are worth the wait, delivering a track that is as much a personal reckoning as it is an arena-ready anthem. “Every Bit Of Violence” is available now on all major streaming platforms, signaling the return of one of Canada’s most authentic and unapologetic rock voices
