AS EVERYTHING UNFOLDS Announce New Album “Did You Ask To Be Set Free?”, New Single ‘Gasoline’ Out Now

As Everything Unfolds are proud to announce the release date for their new album, ‘DID YOU ASK TO BE SET FREE?’, on April 10th via Century Media.

To mark the announcement, today also sees the release of a new single, ‘GASOLINE’. ‘Gasoline is a story about that unquantifiable and confusing human bond you get with someone else,” explains Charlie Rolfe. “That twin flame sensation, that mutual connection with an unknown person, almost like you were destined to be in each other’s lives. During this song it explores an explosive connection, the thought process, the denial in wanting it and the need to turn away from it, even though it feels wrong, you desperately try to keep hold of your life path, ignoring this fated sensation, how heartbreaking and soul destroying it can be. This idea tied in so neatly with the concept of Count Dracula and Mina’s relationship from Bram Stoker’s Dracula, that otherworldly, toxic and destined love. Similar to Set In Flow, we used the story to visually inspire the music video, to which shots from the video are homages to moments in the 1994 film.’

DID YOU ASK TO BE SET FREE? is a deeply personal record shaped by grief, trauma, escapism and the slow, uncomfortable process of confronting reality. Written across a period of profound upheaval, the album documents a journey from emotional safety and creative flow into loss, numbness and disorientation, before gradually finding movement again. Framed around the idea of maladaptive daydreaming and fantasy as both refuge and trap, the songs explore addiction, self-sacrifice, burnout, fractured relationships and the question of whether freedom is something to be desired or feared. Drawing inspiration from cinema, literature and subconscious writing, the record shifts sonically and lyrically as time passes, mirroring real change rather than resisting it. The result is an album that does not offer neat resolution, but instead captures the fragile, ongoing act of learning how to exist, grieve and continue.
