Employed To Serve have released their second single of 2026.

Serving up personal reflection amid crushingly heavy riffs, A Moment Gone Too Soon follows the Woking metalcore band's spring single Dead Reckoning as the second track released on guitarist-vocalist Sammy Urwin and lead vocalist Justine Jones' own label, Church Road Records. The band said:

"A Moment Gone Too Soon touches on something we're all guilty of, taking what we have for granted and not realising until it's too late and the sands of time have insidiously slipped through our fingers, until every grain of a reality we once knew exists only in memory. However, this is not a song focused on looking back with rose-tinted glasses, far from it. This is a track that focuses on grabbing the present day with both hands and ringing every bit of happiness and opportunity out of it. At the end of the day, it's all we truly have."

The band have also scheduled a co-headline UK and European tour with Danish deathcore band Cabal for this autumn and winter, featuring support from Cold Culture (except at Manchester's Damnation Fest). Tickets go on general sale at 10am BST/11am CEST on Monday (July 20).

Ahead of the tour, Employed To Serve will continue their run of European shows throughout the summer, which features several festival appearances, including Manchester's Radar Festival, and shows supporting In Flames and Unearth. Tickets are on sale now.

They released their latest studio album, 'Fallen Star', in 2025.
