Virolainen metalcore-yhtye Horror Dance Squad on julkaissut uuden albuminsa ”No Flag Will Fly Forever”.
Bändi julkaisi myös musiikkivideon kappaleestaan ”Burn This Place Down”:
“The album is our most ambitious work by far,” kertoo laulaja Karl Mesipuu. “It is our deepest dive into the style we have crafted for ourselves and truly embodies the values and spirit of the band. Lyrically, emotionally and musically this is as honest I have ever been in music. The record was born purely out of working on something we love together. This is Horror Dance Squad at its best. We worked hard to challenge ourselves as songwriters to make sure we wrote the best tracks we could.” Guitarist Indrek Ulp adds, ”We wanted to write music that we would enjoy ourselves if we were in front of the stage. All of the songs went through multiple changes before they came fully together. Before they were exactly how we wanted them.”
Yhtyeen toinen laulaja Ian Karell jatkaa, “No Flag Will Fly Forever is a collection of songs exploring essential topics both eternal and specific to this era of humanity’s evolution. From the things that affect us all: climate change, racism, overt nationalism, the dangerous rise of the new fascist movements all around the world, injustice in our social and political systems; to the intensely personal experiences of spiritual and psychological growth and relationship health, this album is a voyage through the human condition as we experience it in our day and age.”
“All tracks from the album were recorded in Tallinn, Estonia with the help of Sander Sadam and were mixed and mastered by Cody Stewart (The Browning) in Los Angeles, USA. The whole process was a massive undertaking for us both technically as well as musically” kertoo kitaristi Mikk Peetrimägi.
Rumpali Henri Kuusk summaa: “This album touches on so many topics that I feel people need to pay more attention to and the whole process has helped me go through some heavy personal struggles which I was able to get out and into these tracks. Overall, I feel I not only became a better drummer but also as a person.”
