Recorded from March-June 09, the new H.O.D. album 'SURGE KILL STEAL' is here! Currently getting manufactured and is penciled in for release on the 27th July. just waiting on delivery ETA.
Expect 42 minutes (for one side of a cassette) of full-blown thrash and trad metal, requests were answered from Beer Bitches Blood and now we have a bigger production, a proper release, more detailed artwork and a nice DIY record label.
Pre-orders can be made at http://www.hodmerch.co.uk, full retail editions (12 page booklet, loads of new art) are £6.00 delivered (UK - £7 INT) or £2.00 for the official bootleg card wallet edition. Album will be made as a free download once we aren't so heavily in debt!
Everyone who has heard this stuff has said it isn't as instant as BBB, but I can assure you it's a grower - give it a chance and you will love it!!
Throughout the songwriting process (which took place over the course of a year) we've been influenced by different things, which is why the first one I wrote (Titanus) was more broodalz, but then the last one (King of Sweden) was a Malmsteen wank fest! It really isn't that different to BBB, except we've learned a lot about recording in the meantime and we used live drums. All the elements are there - tasty riffs, ripping leads, screaming vox, silly lyrics, and so on.
