Remade in Misery is the seventh studio album by American metalcore band Memphis May Fire. It was released on June 3, 2022, through Rise Records and was produced by Kellen McGregor, the band's guitarist. The album was released four years after the band's sixth studio album, Broken (2018), their longest gap between albums and marks a return to their metalcore and post-hardcore sound.




Background and promotion


In early 2020, frontman Matty Mullins stated he had started work on new Memphis May Fire music as well as his solo material, and that it would mark a return to their heavier roots. On June 3, 2021, the band released a new single titled "Blood & Water" which confirmed a return to their earlier, heavier sound.
Over the course of late 2021 and early 2022, the band released more singles; "Death Inside", "Bleed Me Dry", "Somebody", "Left for Dead", and "The American Dream". On February 18, 2022, the band released another single entitled "Make Believe" whilst also announcing the album itself along with the track list, cover art, and release date. On April 1, 2022, the band released another single entitled "Only Human" featuring AJ Channer from Fire from the Gods.
The album's final pre-release single "Your Turn" was released on May 6, 2022. Vocalist Matty Mullins commented on the song:

"'Your Turn' is our ninth and final single before the album comes out as a whole. It's been such a wild and rewarding ride to release music in such a non-traditional way, especially because even this far along, we're still so excited about each and every song! We're thrilled to share that we will be donating 100% of the proceeds from the 'Your Turn' tee in our merch store to Food for the Hungry, whose mission is to end all forms of human poverty by providing life-changing development programs, disaster relief, and advocacy. Our donation will be specifically allocated toward their relief efforts for those affected by the war in Ukraine."




Critical reception



The only two non-single tracks in the album are "Misery" and "The Fight Within", both of which were stated in the HM review for the album to "offer an encouraging perspective of the growth that comes from the hardships of life. In a genre that can dwell on only the negatives of the human experience, Memphis May Fire shines the attention on the light at the end of the tunnel."
