Alt-rock phenom TX2 has released his new single “Murder Scene,” the second track unveiled from his debut album “End Of Us,” coming February 13, 2026, via Hopeless Records. Featuring Magnolia Park, the song brings together two of the most talked-about acts in the new wave of emo, marking a full-circle collaboration between two of this new generation's most talked-about emo acts and longtime friends.
"Magnolia Park and I have been friends for years now, and since they had me featured on a song, it seemed only right to invite them to collab on this track," says Evan Thomas (TX2). "The song 'Murder Scene' dives into the story of our album, with Josh playing a different character introduced in the last act. We are both in two of the biggest upcoming emo bands of the new generation, this is the perfect collaboration to me."
Built on gothic horror imagery, “Murder Scene” explores themes of betrayal, abandonment, and mental health struggles. Set in a haunted motel filled with ghosts and creeping shadows, the track turns emotional collapse into a cinematic nightmare, capturing the paranoia and isolation that come with hitting rock bottom alone. The single continues the narrative first introduced on the album’s title track, “The End Of Us” featuring Black Veil Brides, a six-minute epic released in December alongside the album announcement.
While supporting Ice Nine Kills on their UK and European arena tour late last year, TX2 also surprise-dropped a music video for the previously released single “The Rain.” The animated visual, created with animator @fersetid_, draws inspiration from the PS2-era of survival horror games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. The music video serves as a visual bridge between the “FEED” and “The End Of Us” music videos. You can watch the video for "The Rain" HERE or by clicking the thumbnail below!
With over 1 million monthly Spotify listeners and over 1 million followers on TikTok, TX2 has cultivated one of alternative music’s most passionate and polarizing fanbases through relentless touring and the X Movement, a Discord-based mental health support community. His new album features collaborations with Black Veil Brides, Magnolia Park, DeathbyRomy, Ekoh, and Ice Nine Kills’ Spencer Charnas.
TX2 already has a packed touring schedule for 2026. Kicking it off with their US 'End of Us' Headline tour beginning in February, followed by an Australian tour with Rain City Drive in March. Which is then followed by a major European festival circuit including Download Festival, Rock AM Ring, Rock Im Park, Rock For People, Novarock, Graspop, Jera On Air and Vainstream.
Here's a little bit more about TX2:
TX2 has spent years earning co-signs from scene veterans. Beartooth's Caleb Shomo has publicly praised his "passion, hard work, and talent," with his track "MAD" featuring Ice Nine Kills' Spencer Charnas generated over 10,000 TikTok video creations, and From First to Last joined him on "THIS ISN'T ABOUT DRUGS (I SWEAR)."
