Delivering a slice of utter brilliance that combines the best of their past selves with forward thinking shifts via the medium of tighter song writing that drops some of the egregious ‘techy’ aspects. All in favour of a more anthemic heavy sound.

Released April 10th, ‘Heresy’ is the new single from Sydney metalcore quartet Harroway. We spoke to vocalist Matt Banks about the new single, delving into the history of Harroway and what has got them to this point.

Love it, hate it, it doesn’t really matter. After all, it’s not like we’re going to get new music from this band. It’s just a slice of black metal history that Hessian Firm have sought to drag into the light one more time.

Once you’ve stopped rocking yourself back and forth from the trauma, you’ll be coming back to this time and time again.

Think of it like a carnival ride through a rundown ghost train that is barely functional. It’s not impressive, but it is memorable.

Support Yersin. They’re doing mighty fine stuff. So glad to see them added to bloodstockfest and we will be definitely be front and centre for that!

Later today, we have a joint Incineration Festival review going live. Offering up our words about the bands we saw from mine (Carl) and Brendan’s individual perspectives.

This new album has a rawer and unpolished sound, but for a band that showcases a style of post-punk and alternative rock as Mutes do, that works extremely well.

Look, it’s not terrible, in fact it’s fine, but that’s not going to cut it in a world where every adaption and franchise is upping the game. Let’s hope this isn’t a harbinger of what to expect with Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

We had an amazing time at Incineration Festival yesterday. Burner, Wallowing, Corpsing, Anaal Nathrakh, Belphegor, Winterfylleth, Conan, and Abduction were all amazing. Today… bed, films, and takeaway. 🤘

Here’s our thoughts!

It’s been a busy, but satisfying day. Lots of video editing, interviews, a Single Slam that I almost forgot to publish, and a ticket competition completed. Off out now for the London MT2M and a much-earned beer in The Dev.

Today’s single slam features Kittie, Cult Burial, Grimgotts, Cobra the Impaler, Fahran, Rising Insane, Plague Father, Evergrey, Rendezvous Point, Spliff Richards, and Coheed and Cambria.
