Released on September 23, 2016, Haven’t Been Myself is the emotionally charged sophomore album by Kentucky post-hardcore band Too Close To Touch. Following their 2015 debut Nerve Endings, this record pushes deeper into themes of grief, identity, emotional isolation, and healing, all wrapped in a blend of post-hardcore intensity, alternative rock melodies, and ambient textures.

At its core, Haven’t Been Myself is a cathartic tribute to vocalist Keaton Pierce’s late sister, and much of the lyrical content reflects the pain, confusion, and vulnerability that come with personal loss. Pierce delivers a raw and visceral vocal performance, matched by the band's dynamic instrumentation—shifting seamlessly between soaring choruses, ambient breaks, and heavy breakdowns
